Rauma Luke’s number one goalkeeper Antti Raanta36, injured in a match against HIFK.
The situation was special. The puck was at the HIFK field end when Raanta had to leave the field.
MTV commentator Antero Mertaranta wondered about the situation.
– There is a situation where Daniel Salonen is commanded there [Lukon varamaalivahti] to the finish. Now is a pretty dramatic moment, namely Antti Raanta linked out of the box. Of course, this is a fierce, fierce situation when the team has to change their number one goalkeeper at this stage. Then it just fits in that nothing more serious has happened, Mertaranta interpreted in live broadcast.
There was no exit from Raanna on TV photos.
The Rauma goalkeeper has suffered from numerous injuries in his career and has played several broken seasons.
The track was considered one of the best goalkeepers in the SM league, so the loss is massive for Luko.
In the spring of 2013, the goalkeeper who fought to the Finnish Championship in the Finnish Championship returned to the SM League this season.
Raanta has played 277 regular season matches between Chicago Blackhawks, New York Rangers, Arizona Coyotes and Carolina Hurricanes.
