Nothing unique about itHow short is your leash on Tuukka if he puts up a 5 spot in game 1? Kind of a unique situation for coach. Certainly I think this is going to be one of the key areas of the series. Which Tuukka will we get?
if he has a game like today in game 1. we see halak game 2. no doubt.How short is your leash on Tuukka if he puts up a 5 spot in game 1? Kind of a unique situation for coach. Certainly I think this is going to be one of the key areas of the series. Which Tuukka will we get?
Numbers don’t matter unless it’s cups. Love Rask when he is on. When he is not, he is not horrible at stopping pucks, he is horrible at making saves at the right time. Grant Fuhr? What’s his GAA or save percentage? Elite goaltending is timing... when your up or down by a goal does your goalie make the save....in 2011 playoffs Timmah was elite... and we won. Numbers in terms of GAA SV etc mean good. Cups and timingly goaltending mean great. Hope Rask is up for the task this year!there are still people who hate tuuka rask and say hes not very good... lets look at his career numbers
did you know there are 4 goalies that have played since 1950 who have at least 350 career games and a goals against average under 2.30? if you named dominek hasak, ken Dryden, and martin Brodeur someone might think you are naming the 3 best goalies in history. the 4th guy? how many guesses do you need before you put tuuka rask there?
don't like goals against average as your measuring stick?
lets look at save %. theres only 4 goalies in history with more than
350 career games and a % better than .920. hasek… Dryden... tim Thomas
and mr rask is in the top 4 for this too
in NHL HISTORY... for and entire career... 485 games... a .922 save percentage and a 2.26 goals against
but sure... hate him if you want... say he cant win
btw 260 wins points in 304 of those 485 games... not too bad
maybe he sucks in playoffs?
hmm... save % of .924 goals against of 2.25... seems he gets even better at playoffs
so what is the reason for some of you to hate this guy other than you are just
completely and utterly clueless?
LOL Halak has played 40 games (not the magic 45 games, I guess) and has a .922 save percentage. Rask has played 46 games, and has a .912 save percentage.I love it with you Rask haters, when he’s “27th”* in save% he’s pathetic but when he does it in the playoffs and is quite literally 10th ALL TIME it doesn’t count
It’s honestly hilarious to watch the gymnastics at this point. I feel bad for you.
* a smart person would indicate he’s 9th out of goalies that play 45+ games by the way, but I don’t expect anything “smart” to come out a post like that anyway . Count those one game goalies all you want in the league leaders! Then go paint your face
Stoo pedLOL Halak has played 40 games (not the magic 45 games, I guess) and has a .922 save percentage. Rask has played 46 games, and has a .912 save percentage.
CDJ, I think you're making a bit of a leap here. All I'm saying is in his last 10 games, Rask has been the opposite of sharp. It's an observation, I'm sure the coaches and most of all Rask himself expect better out of him.
But beyond that, it's not hate. This "hater" concept is weird. We're hoping the Rask of the last 10 games isn't the one that shows up for game 1 against a super powerful offence. That's about all there is to it.

When Rask gets hot for 2-3 months like he did last 3 seasons he’s as good as anyoneLOL Halak has played 40 games (not the magic 45 games, I guess) and has a .922 save percentage. Rask has played 46 games, and has a .912 save percentage.
A previous poster wrote that Rask was 9th in save percentage among goalies who have played 45 or more games, as if Halak’s 40 games don’t matter.When Rask gets hot for 2-3 months like he did last 3 seasons he’s as good as anyone
Signing Halak was excellent but Rask is the guy you go with
