Pekka Rinne with 32 saves, Predators blank Flames after shutting out Oilers
CALGARY — Pekka Rinne didn’t want to take all the credit after stopping all 32 shots he faced on Saturday.
The veteran goaltender praised his teammates and the goal posts behind him following a 2-0 win for his Nashville Predators over the Calgary Flames at the Scotiabank Saddledome.
“I got a lot of help,” said Rinne, who recorded his third shutout of the season and the 46th of his NHL career.
“(The Flames) have a lot of skill up front and they were able to get a couple good looks. Early on I gave a couple bad rebounds and guys were there to bail me out. I got some help from the crossbar too. That was like four times, I think.”
