Antti Raanta (CAR) – @ ARI (29% Owned)

After suffering a lower-body injury late in the third period against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday, Frederik Andersen was helped off the ice and did not return to the game. Andersen will be reevaluated after receiving an MRI. This poses great concern for the Carolina Hurricanes heading into the playoffs but significantly increases the value of Raanta for fantasy owners in need of quality goalie starts, beginning tonight with a matchup against the Arizona Coyotes. Raanta spent most of his career as a Coyote but has been tremendous whenever facing them, with a sparkling .944 SV% in five games (4-0-1). The Hurricanes are huge -404 road favourites against a Coyotes team that has lost six straight (0-6-0) and have scored only nine goals combined in their last eight games (1-7-1).
