Predators rolling with Pekka Rinne on Tuesday against Ottawa
Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne will draw the start Tuesday night versus the Ottawa Senators.
What It Means:
Rinne gave up two goals on 25 shots in his last start, a shootout loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. He's 2-4-3 on the year with a 2.63 goals-against average and .916 save percentage. It's worth noting that the Predators brought up minor-league stud Juuse Saros on Tuesday morning.
Our models give Rinne a convincing 70.0 percent chance of defeating a Senators team Tuesday night that is currently tied for 19th in the NHL at 2.55 goals for per game. We project him to allow 2.12 goals on 24.77 attempts.
