Rinne to start tonight for the Predators.

Rinne is in early talks for the Hart Trophy which speaks to how well he has played through the first 1/4 of the season. He is 4-3-3 with a 1.92 GAA and .929 SV% and will get a crack at a struggling Sharks team tonight. He already has 1 win against the Sharks this season when he allowed only 1 goal on 28 shots in a 2-1 win. He is a must-start in all formats.

This is the back-end of a back-to-back for the Predators and Chris Mason played yesterday so Rinne will start tonight. Rinne has been spectacular lately. He has won 4 straight and has stopped 113 of 116 shots he faced in those 4 starts. He has a tough match-up tonight and the Predators will need him to continue his strong play if they're going to have a chance against the Blackhawks.

Rinne has played well this season but is just fighting some back luck. He is 3-2-3 with a 2.02 GAA and .923 SV%. He will be in tough tonight vs. the Kings, but it is a fantastic goalie matchup between Quick and Rinne. Rinne is a must-start in all formats.

It appears as if the Pekka Rinne we all know is back. He enters tonight after winning 2 games straight where he only allowed 1 goal in each. However Rinne doesn't have a great matchup tonight against a gritty Blues team. However it is still Rinne he can win any game, tough to bench him.

Rinne finally registered his first win of the season in his last outing. Despite the low win total Rinne has actually played well this season he's just run into some bad luck. He has a tough matchup tonight though against the only undefeated team left in the NHL (San Jose Sharks).

Looking like Quick against Rinne tonight in net. Look for more line shuffling as Nashville tries to find the winning combo.

Given the Preds schedule it makes sense that Rinne will start games for the foreseeable future. Tonight's opponent, the Kings, have won 2 in a row after a slow start to their Stanley Cup defence.

Pekka Rinne expected to get the start tonight.

Rinne got the night off on Tuesday, so it was expected that he would get the start tonight against St. Louis. Rinne and the Predators got one point last time they played the Blues. They head into St. Louis tonight looking to take two points this time. Rinne vs Halak, should be a great divisional game.

Rinne lost in a shootout in the season opener against the Blue Jackets. The Blues dismantled the Red Wings in their opener, will be a tough opponent for Rinne. He is still a must-start in all formats but be weary of the Blues.

Pekka Rinne between the pipes, no surprise there.

Rinne struggled in the KHL during the lockout but fantasy owners shouldn't worry. You know what you're getting with Rinne, a lot of games played, consistent wins and numbers close what he had last year (2.39 GAA and .923 SV%)

”I feel everybody knows if you take this game it’s a new series,“ Nashville goalie Pekka Renne said. ”We have a chance to come back after that and obviously don’t want to go too far ahead. That’s just the situation we’re in.

Rinne has allowed just 1 goal in the past 2 games.
