Raanta has played for the Chicago Blackhawks (2013-15), New York Rangers (2015-17), Arizona Coyotes (2017-21) and Carolina. In 11 seasons, he has a 139-80-29 record, 2.48 GAA and .915 save percentage in 277 games (251 starts).
The Finland native is on a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Hurricanes and will become an unrestricted free agent after the season.
