"We’d like to get better, we’d like to improve," Sweeney said Wednesday. "We’re not as good as we need to be. And that’s the bottom line.

Sorry, I had to get that in at the end of the old thread and the start of this one.

Tuukka Rask can kick rocks. He quit on the Bruins when it mattered most.

It's ridiculous that he continues to say these things year after year yet nothing substantial has yet to be done. He better deliver in the next few days.

It's almost as if @Fenway and I timed that perfectly.

But we didn't

Next thing you know he's gonna be bold enough to say the scouts did a half assed job this year.

 

[The Laukomotive]

Wow Sweeny really broke Dom after yesterday.

 

[Mione134]

Post from last thread.

He has one more year left on his current contract.
Rask isn’t expecting to get dealt.
“I think Sweeney came out and said that’s not going to happen,” Rask told Conroy. “I don’t want to play for anybody else but the Bruins. …
“I don’t see any reason for that,” Rask later noted. “I’ve been here for a long time and the organization’s been so great for me. We’ve built our home in Boston and we call this home. So, yeah, I don’t want to play for anybody else. I think where my head’s at is focusing on next year and then hopefully a couple of more years after that and then pass the torch for the next guy after that. I want to help the organization as much as I can.”

Rask was a Vezina Trophy finalist this past season. He went 26-8-6 with a .929 save percentage.

I just got off the phone with a friend in Chicago who also is a sports talk show host

He was asking ME if I had heard anything about Rask being traded to Chicago for Brandon Saad. I told him I knew Boston was asking about Saad but nothing more.

The Hawks have decided to not sign Corey Crawford and there is no way they are going to make Subban the main goalie so something might be up.

Wow Sweeny really broke Dom after yesterday.

Yup.

I actually have people telling me to calm down when it's always the other way around.

I was going to phone @DKH but I'm holding off until my blood stops boiling.

I'm not allowed to talk about the Blackhawks

Oh, and Subban wasn't even qualified

 

[Don Cherry]

Tuukka Rask can kick rocks. He quit on the Bruins when it mattered most.

I could not agree more! He can kick rocks all over the golf course. (Allegedly)

 

[LOFIN]

Tuukka Rask can kick rocks. He quit on the Bruins when it mattered most.

What a shame he chose his family before the Bruins.

“I got a phone call from my wife and my daughter was in a state that she needed medical attention and she wasn’t doing well. At that point, I had no choice but to go home. It’s as simple as that,” said Rask. “If you get a phone call wherever you are, like I did, it’s a pretty easy decision. What bothered me a little bit was people thinking that I just left because I didn’t like it there. I’m not going to lie to to you, (the bubble) was awful. But if I didn’t have a reason to leave, I wouldn’t have left, obviously. There’s that. But my daughter’s fine now, the family”s good, and it made me feel good. When I got home, they were happy to have me home and things got back to normal pretty quickly, so I knew that I made the right decision. It had nothing to do with hockey or the bubble. It was just the fact that I had to make that decision and I stand by it.”

Love everything you post. Can’t believe he’s just waking up now

I can also share that before I left Edmonton I was told by an insider that Neely wants Rask gone and he added it could be pressure from the Jacobs family.

Iirc they didn't give Subban a qualifying offer.

What was his reason

 

[EvilDead]

What a shame he chose his family before the Bruins.

Newsflash guy, Gordon Hayward missed the birth of his son to stay in the NBA bubble and played as best he could to get the Celtics to the finals. Brad Marchand had to tell his wife to be strong while absent because he wanted the cup that bad. People made sacrifices just as much as Tuukka did. He wasn't the only one. Oh and BTW, when Tuukka said he was leaving, Marchy looked at him sideways during the presser.

and....

are you ready?

Rask "may not want to get traded" but he's working with the brass.

 

[CharaBadSenyshynGawd]

Tuukka bad
Tuukka leave bubble

That is correct - right now Chicago only has Collin Delia on the books for 2020-21.

Tomorrow is going to be unlike anything we have ever seen before.

Improving his short game (allegedly).
