He did. He still needs a few games to shake the rust off.
I noticed that he was a bit tentative sliding side to side but I think that will go away as he plays more.
Glad to have him back
Task was fantastic tonight. I know it was only the Sabres, but they've been playing some good hockey lately. That sequence of saves in the first was amazing and he was rock solid positional all night. Calm and collected
That was a glimpse of playoff Tuukka last night. Was so awesome to see.

Rask was shaky today
When he is nervous, he goes down on his knees too early. Just stays in the butterfly position
Not his fault for the loss. But he couldnt bail out the team unfortunately

Hopefully he is back. He said he wants to be back and has said he only wants to play for the Bruins.
I'm hoping for a 2 year /$12 mil total extension.

I feel pretty confident that he will return. As for playing less games I'm pretty sure the split between him and Swayman would be something around 60-40.

Great stuff from Tuukka. It is clear that KPD tried to bait him and the stuff floating around post game was out of context
A non story.

No one is stopping you for unfairly blaming him for every issue the team had last night and calling him a bad teammate.
You want to call him out for the OT goal fine but don’t put the entire loss on him.
Tbe quotes that were posted last night from him were clearly clipped for clickbait and now we get the context that was missing. Come to find out, what he said wouldn’t have blown up if it was any other player other than Rask.
i don’t even think the loss is on him. Most everyone was bad or worse. He didn’t have a great game, but it doesn’t fall on him.
not saying he’s a bad teammate either, but i think he was out of line last night for sure.

KPD and Ty are lazy hacks. That article is so tainted.
"with a 29-of-32 performance, including an overtime squeaker off, under, and through him for a 3-2 Washington victory." It went off/under/through him because it was tipped.
"It’s not the first time that Rask has dropped the opening game of a postseason round" Yes, he is 13-6 in opening games of playoff series.
I wouldn't blame Tuukka if he left. Then these Timmy fluffers will see what it's like to not have a reliable top tier goalie.

TY’s article at least clarified the comments from Tuukka that came from KPD that made the rounds on social media last night and were posted hear.
Ty wouldn’t have had to write that if those quotes hadn’t been tweeted out of context and sent to him repeatedly by people screaming to put Swayman in.
Bottom line, KPD shouldn’t have asked the questions which forced others to provide fans with context.
THOSE WHO WANT Swayman must really love the newest Bruin Goalie.... Kyle Keyser welcome to the Stanley Cup Playoffs

Lord knows Thomas never gave away a playoff game on a horrible goal...oh, wait
I missed most of the game. my allergies effin killed me.
only saw highlights pretty much.
overtime goal was weak. first goal is an easy save for Swayman. Rask was pretty much inside the goal by the post when wilson shot that.

Hilarious comparison. Like comparing anyone who lost a round in boxing to Ali because he lost a few himself. . . .
