So it was my impression that steady Freddie played better than Raanta on the road. I researched it and that’s not the case stat wise which was a bit of a surprise to me. (Yes I know game 2 is a home game so I give the stats for home and away).

Goalie records 2022-2023

Note the stats below don’t consider quality of teams played. Stats source: statmuse.com

On the road records 

Andersen-10-5-0, 2.73 GAA, .898 SV%avg

Raanta- 8-3-2, 2.37 GAA, .905 SV%avg

At home records

Andersen- 11-6-1, 2.27 GAA, .908 SV%avg

Raanta-11-0-1, 2.06 GAA, .916 SV%avg

if we're going to make a long run, we'll need to play both and or Pyotr. IMO the road is where you play Freddie because it takes pressure off and can build him confidence.  The main point there is right now you just can't not play Raanta at home because he's currently untouchable at PNC

I hope we see Raanta in the lineup tonight, he earned it. I don’t see us playing Raanta throughout and Im good with Freddie in the first away game. But if Raanta does well tonight and Freddie gives up 4 goals in the first away game then sit him and play him sparingly when Raanta needs a break. I don’t think Pyotr is playoff ready he’s either played outstanding or given up a ton of goals.

true on Pyotr but Cam Ward was pretty meh/needs more AHL time his rookie year and then we know what happened when Gerber got sick in the first round..

Not as corny as 2 states 1 team. No offense to any South Cakalacky residents.

My friend in SC prefer it be called by its formal name, “Sow Kerralina”

Not to get this sent to the TB, but NC is doing its best to regress to the levels of SC as quick as it can.
