Pekka Rinne handling net for Predators on Thursday

Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne will start on Thursday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

What It Means:

Rinne saw his five-game winning streak come to an end on Tuesday when allowed three goals on 30 shots in a loss to the Boston Bruins. On the year, he's 30-17-8 with a 2.49 goals-against average and .916 save percentage.
