How Steven Stamkos can man Nashville Predators fans embrace him like Pekka Rinne

Steven Stamkos scored on his first shot against Nashville Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne.

A 19-year-old in his second year with the Tampa Bay Lightning, Stamkos doesn't remember much about his Nashville debut back on Dec. 15, 2009 — but he does remember Rinne.

Specifically, the Finnish goaltender's size and athletic ability.

"As someone who likes to score goals, he was tough to beat," Stamkos said. "An elite goalie, for sure."

Stamkos would score eight more goals on Rinne the next 12 years — a fair number for both players, considering Stamkos is a former Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy winner, and Rinne a former Vezina Trophy winner.
