There’s no doubting that the Nashville Predators have two solid options in net with Pekka Rinne and Juuse Saros. Rinne may be a future Hall of Famer, and Saros seems to have a bright future as Nashville’s future franchise goaltender.
Going into the season I expected Saros and Rinne to come close to splitting the starts evenly. The Predators have played nine games so far in 2019-20, and Saros has started just three of those. They’ve all ended in losses, but it’s up for debate on how much those losses have been his fault.
