Rask allowed two goals on 28 shots in the Bruins win over the Devils on Monday. He has won four straight while allowing just seven goals on 102 shots (.931 SV%). He is a must start in all formats, even against a Maple Leafs team who average 2.71 goals per game.

Bruins head coach Claude Julien called tonight's starting goalie a game-time decision.

The Bruins have a back-to-back tonight and tomorrow but Tuukka Rask has already started both games of a back-to-back once this season (Oct 8-9). He was not on the ice for the morning skate which suggests he might get the nod tonight, but we will have to wait until warmups to confirm that.

Rask gave up four goals on 42 shots in the Bruins loss to the Wild on Tuesday. Rask is off to a 4-4-0 start to the season and will be under more pressure than normal with Zdeno Chara and Torey Krug both out of the lineup. However, he remains an elite fantasy option and should be in your lineup vs. Ottawa.

Rask turned aside 32 of 33 shots in the Bruins 4-1 win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday. After facing an average of just 22 shots in his first four starts and posting an .852 SV%, Rask has faced 33.5 shots per game in his last two games and posted a .940 SV%. Maybe the heavy workload helps him? Hopefully so because that trend should continue with Zdeno Chara out of the lineup.

Tonight will mark Rask's first start since last Thursday when he was yanked in the third vs. Montreal after allowed five goals on 23 shots. It has not been an ideal start to the season for Rask or the Bruins and things will not be easy on them tonight with the San Jose Sharks in town. That said, Rask is elite and does not belong on your bench.
