RALEIGH, NC. - The Carolina Hurricanes placed goaltender Antti Raanta on waivers Saturday afternoon.

Raanta, 34, has produced a record of 6-5-1 this season with a goals against average (GAA) of 3.61 and a save percentage (SV%) of .854.

All 31 other NHL clubs will have 24 hours to claim the netminder and his current contract, a one-year deal worth $1.5M signed in July.

Raanta has played 69 games in three seasons with the team, posting a total record of 40-13-8 with a 2.59 GAA and a .901 SV%.

Through 267 career games with the Blackhawks, Canes, Coyotes, and Rangers, he is 133-78-28 with a 2.49 GAA and a .915 SV%.

All three. Waddell hopefully sees what we see.  Time make goalie and goal scorer moves. 

I see theses guys as being trade bait: 

Drury, Pesce. If Pesce goes, Chatty moves up to the second pair and TDA is on with Orlov. Say what you will about TDA, but the Canes have nobody else to run point on the PP.

Drury goes and somebody is getting a phone call to come up to the show.

Either one of those guys should get a decent net minder.

The will still need goal scoring. It drys up in the playoffs.  And when you lose Drury or necas, we will need something.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
