The 29-year-old Rask has a 3-0 record in the early 2016-17 NHL campaign and has an impressive 1.68 goals-against-average, and .947 save percentage. What many call “general soreness” the Bruins starter has been battling a lower body injury which could’ve been a result of his participation in the 2016 World Cup which took place last month and had him miss the majority of Bruins training camp.
Looks like Tuukka Rask is back in. If so, Zane McIntyre will be the No. 2.
