Pekka Rinne Has Rough Outing Versus Sabres
7 years agoNashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne got pulled from Saturday's game versus the Sabres, after allowing six goals on 29 shots. Rinne has arguably been one, if not the top goalie in the league this season, making this a bit of an unusual outing for him. The Sabres are one of the weakest teams in the league, so to see him struggling could be cause for a bit of concern. It also could just be fatigue at this point, considering the Predators have their playoff spot clinched, but not yet locked into a spot. They are also in the mix for the President's Trophy, which would give them home ice throughout the playoffs, so think of this more as an outlier, and still should have full confidence in him.
