Collects shutout Wednesday Fanti posted an 18-save shutout in AHL Syracuse's 5-0 win over Bridgeport on Wednesday.

Impact Fanti's shutout was the second of his career in the AHL. The goalie lost six straight games (0-5-1) between Nov. 7 and Dec. 10, but he's since won two in a row. He's now 6-5-1 with a 2.34 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 12 games this year for the Crunch.

Posts first career AHL shutout Fanti recorded a 33-save shutout in AHL Syracuse's 4-0 win over Utica on Friday.

Impact This was the first shutout in 19 career AHL games for Fanti. He's played well this season, winning all three of his starts with a 1.66 GAA and a .941 save percentage. Fanti is still behind Brandon Halverson on the Lightning's organizational depth chart, but he appears to be putting it all together for Syracuse after struggling in small amounts of time with AHL Bakersfield in previous seasons.

Dropped to AHL pending waivers Fanti shifted to waivers to be assigned to AHL Syracuse on Sunday.

Impact Fanti spent most of the 2024-25 campaign with ECHL Orlando, posting a record of 18-13-5 with a 2.71 GAA and a .907 save percentage in 37 regular-season appearances. Assuming he clears waivers, he could see more action in the AHL this season with Tampa Bay's top minor-league affiliate.

Grabs one-year deal Fanti signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Lightning on Tuesday.

Impact Fanti has yet to make his NHL debut and seems unlikely to do so this season either, as the Bolts are firmly cemented at the No. 1 and 2 spots on the NHL roster. In fact, Brandon Halverson projects as the first-choice call-up should the Lightning need to bring somebody up from the minors.

Signs one-year deal with Tampa Bay Fanti signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Lightning on Monday, according to PuckPedia.

Impact An undrafted free agent prior to signing with the Lightning, Fanti appeared in 37 regular-season games with ECHL Orlando in 2024-25, posting an 18-13-5 record, .907 save percentage and 2.71 GAA. He also made seven regular-season appearances with AHL Syracuse this past campaign, going 3-1-0 while registering a stellar .946 save percentage and a 1.45 GAA. The 25-year-old backstop will probably start in the minors in 2025-26, but if he continues to put up solid numbers with the Crunch, he could eventually challenge Jonas Johansson for the No. 2 gig behind Andrei Vasilevskiy.

Dropped to AHL Fanti was reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Monday, per CapFriendly.

Called up from minors Fanti was promoted from AHL Bakersfield on Monday.

Impact Fanti spent the season in the minors with ECHL Fort Wayne in which he posted a 9-6-2 record to go with a .915 save percentage and 2.75 GAA in 17 outings. The 24-year-old backstop figures to serve as nothing more than an emergency third option in case something were to happen to Stuart Skinner or Calvin Pickard.

Activated, sent to minors Fanti (hip) was taken off non-roster injured reserve and reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Thursday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Fanti had a 3.71 GAA and an .884 save percentage in eight contests with Bakersfield last season. He hasn't played yet in 2023-24 because of his hip injury. Fanti will likely spend the remainder of the campaign in the minors.

Out month-to-month Fanti entered training camp with a hip injury and is considered month-to-month, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Fanti split time between AHL Bakersfield and ECHL Fort Wayne last year, posting middling results. He was likely to spend most of 2023-24 in the AHL, but with his injury to begin the year, it could be some time before he's able to get back on the ice.
