Tuukka Rask stole another game for the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night and he seemed to be the only person that reporters wanted to talk to after the game.
Of goalies with at least four games started in the playoffs, Rask leads the way with a .939 save percentage and is a big reason why his team is currently up 3-0 on the Carolina Hurricanes. While Charlie McAvoy’s seven points are nothing to scoff at for a defenceman, it doesn’t quite pop like Rask’s stats.
So after a big 35-save win for Rask, there seemed to be a lot of questions for him and none for McAvoy.
Rask’s delivery here is subtle but effective with a quick “Thanks Chuck” and then McAvoy goes on to explain that his mic does in fact work, if anybody wanted to ask him something. Questions or not, he did have a good game and notched an assist that got him a pretty great list of defencemen.
When you’re on the same board as Glen Wesley, Ray Bourque and Al MacInnis, we wouldn’t worry to much about getting asked questions either.
