Tuukka Rask and the Boston Bruins continue to roll.
The Bruins thumped the Montreal Canadiens 4-1 on Wednesday night, and with the win, Rask has now helped Boston to at least a point in his last 15 games, going 13-0-2. He overtakes Tampa Bay Lightning netminder Andrei Vasilevskiy (13-0-1) for the longest such streak this season, according to NHL Public Relations.
During this stretch, Rask has put up a .939 save percentage and a 1.65 goals-against average. More importantly, he has helped the Bruins put together a staggering 14-2-4 record in their last 20 games and has them making a charge for the top spot in the Atlantic Division.
