I think part of the Predator's gig is they're trying to introduce more speed to the lineup without ditching the defense-first philosophy; which sort of necessitates a first class goal tender.
Rinne is still young, and I believe has a lot of room to improve, but his skill set extends beyond the stats - his glove hand is so smart, so sharp that it limits scoring opportunities severely. Surely, out of the top goalies, can we agree he has the best glove hand?
