Predators asking Pekka Rinne to stifle Dallas' attack

Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne is starting on Thursday versus the Dallas Stars.

What It Means:

In his last 11 starts, Rinne has been one of the hottest goalies in the league as he has posted an incredible 9-1-1 record while allowing 1.90 goals per game with a .935 save percentage.

Our models have Rinne as the 14th-best netminder in Thursday's busy slate with projections of 2.8 goals allowed, 26.6 saves, and a 50.0 percent chance of bringing home the win.
