Tuukka Rask Suffers Concussion On Tuesday
5 years agoBoston Bruins goaltender sustained a concussion in his team's 3-0 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday. The 32-year-old was forced to depart just 1:12 into the contest after getting struck by Jackets forward Emil Bennstrom's arm while skating by. Rask has been a rock in net for the Bruins all season long, posting 17 wins, a 2.27 goals-against average and a .925 save percentage in 28 starts in 2019-2020. As a result, the organization is hoping the Finnish netminder won't be out of action for too long, but a clear timetable to return is rarely ever known when it comes to head injuries. Look for backup netminder Jaroslav Halak to carry the load in between the pipes for the time-being.
