Tuukka Rask Allows Four Goals In Win Over Hurricanes
7 years agoBoston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask gave up four goals on 33 shots in a 6-4 win on Tuesday night against the Carolina Hurricanes. The 31-year-old goaltender was bailed out by the Bruins offense in the third period. The Bruins and Rask found themselves down 4-1 early in the third period before forward David Pastrnak and the Boston offense scored five unanswered goals to win the game. Rask has now posted a save percentage of less than .880 in three of his last five games, but he's won all five. This is more a testament to the Bruins scoring ability than Rask’s goaltending as of late. Rask should still be considered an elite goaltender, just one that is going through a bit of a slump while still maintaining a solid win streak.
