Rangers' Raanta replaces Lundqvist in 3rd period

Mercifully, Henrik Lundqvist has been pulled from the New York Rangers' net.

Backup goaltender Antti Raanta started the third period between the pipes in Game 5 against the Pittsburgh Penguins, facing a 6-2 deficit.

Pittsburgh exploded for four goals in the second period, but multiple defensive breakdowns were to blame rather than Lundqvist, who was hung out to dry repeatedly.

The disappointing performance dropped Lundqvist's save percentage to an uncharacteristic .867 for the postseason. He's stopped pucks at a .923 clip over his playoff career.
