This was one of the major files to watch today in the NHL, and the verdict is in.
Antti Raanta has not been claimed off the NHL waivers.
This could have a major impact on the Montreal Canadiens, particularly for the market value of Jake Allen, but more so for the Laval Rocket.
«Could he now be loaned to the Laval Rocket? It would be a good thing for both organizations!» - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
Remember, this is a real possibility.
On one hand, the Carolina Hurricanes don't have a farm team and must absolutely find a club to host Raanta, and on the other hand, the Laval Rocket really needs reinforcement in goal.
Raanta would probably be the best goalie in the entire AHL.
Raanta with the Laval Rocket? To be followed, but it seems to be heading in that direction.
Raanta, 34 years old, has a career NHL efficiency of 0.915 and 133 wins in 265 games. He earns 1.5 million dollars this season.
