Jaroslav Halak Drops Second Straight Overtime Game
6 years agoBoston Bruins goaltender Jaroslav Halak allowed two goals on 22 shots during a 2-1 overtime loss against the Vancouver Canucks. His defense hung him out to dry on Bo Horvat's OT winner, but he allowed a softie to Brandon Sutter to open the scoring. Halak has had a strong start to the season as Tuukka Rask's backup. He has a 2-0-2 record with a 1.74 GAA, .933 SV%, and a shutout. The Bruins showcased last year that they were not afraid to ride the hot hand, so if Rask struggles, Halak could see a string of starts. For now, he remains a fantastic streaming option whenever he takes the net.
