Boston Bruins: 3 reasons why fans should be nervous – No.2: Tuukka Rask is banged up.
But Kevan Miller isn’t the only one who is injured. Tuukka Rask skated off the ice gingerly and wasn’t available on Tuesday. While Rask might not miss a lot of time, it could be a problem for the team.

Rask is having an amazing season for the B’s. He is 8-4-2 on the season with a .906 save percentage and a 2.46 goals against average.
It’s insane some of the saves that Rask makes. He keeps the Bruins in games and wins them for Boston at times. Without him, Boston would be in big trouble.
That’s why this injury is so concerning for the Bruins. If he has to miss some serious time Boston could be in trouble. Imagine if the B’s have to play Dan Vladar or Jeremy Swayman?
So hopefully this injury is just a small tweak that won’t cause Rask to miss some serious time and hopefully it doesn’t flare up later in the season. If that ends up happening Boston could be in some serious trouble.
