Predators' Pekka Rinne: Will start against Wild

Rinne will get the nod Saturday against the Wild, Thomas Willis of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

Rinne played a solid March, recording a .923 save percentage, 2.17 GAA, and a 5-3-2 record in 12 appearances. He has dropped two straight now, though, and will be looking to bounce back in a game with serious playoff implications. In contrast, Minnesota had a brutal March, losing 12 of its 16 games. This will be a testy matchup, and Rinne will likely face his share of pucks, but his poor play lately makes him a risky pick in the midst of fantasy playoffs
