Carolina Hurricanes Sign Another Goalie

The Carolina Hurricanes now have their second goaltender. The Hurricanes are signing Antii Raanta to a two-year contract. It will carry a $2 million cap hit.

Raanta was only able to play in 12 games this past season. In them, he had a 5-5-2 record, 3.36 goals against average and .905 save percentage. However, he had a very solid season in 2019-20, as he had a 15-14-3 record with a .921 save percentage. If he can replicate those totals in Carolina, he could form a strong tandem with Frederik Andersen.

Yet, at the end of the day, the Hurricanes' two new additions may not make up for the loss of Alex Nedeljkovic. We will see how this works out.
