Tuukka Rask News

Rask starts for the Bruins.

Rask allowed a single goal on 22 shots in Monday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Canadiens. The loss snapped a seven-game winning streak for Rask, but it was still a strong outing for fantasy's number-1 goalie. Tonight, he faces Chicago having gone 7-1-1 with a 1.75 GAA and .938 SV% in March.

Rask shut the door on 31 of 33 shots in a 4-2 win over the Coyotes on Saturday. The win extended his personal winning-streak to seven games and the Bruins to 12… Yeah, they've won 12 straight. I have said this 51 other times this season, but I'll say it again, Rask is a must-start. He is 1-2-0 with a 2.39 GAA and .926 SV% vs. the Habs this season.

Rask surrendered two goals on 27 shots in a 2-1 OT loss to the Canadians. Despite making a number of marquee saves, Rask gave up two soft goals which ultimately cost the Finns. He has not been all that sharp in his first two Olympic starts, but will need to bring his A-game today vs. a Russian team loaded with snipers.
