Tuukka Rask Ties Tiny Thompson For Most Career Wins By A Goalie In Bruins Franchise History
Tuukka Rask’s 28 save win last night against the Blues tied him with Tiny Thompson for the most career wins by a goalie in Boston Bruins franchise history with 252.
In 11 seasons with the black and gold, Tiny Thompson went 252-153-63. He won the Vezina four times in his career and lifted the cup in 1929.
Tuukka Rask boasts a 252-145-56 record in his current 12 year career. He’s on a heater right now, 6-0-1 in his last 7 starts, with a .940 SV%, and has reclaimed No. 1 goalie status.
“It’s an Original Six franchise. I’ve had the luxury to be here for many, many years, so it obviously means a lot. Many more to come, hopefully.”
Tuukka doesn’t get the respect he deserves from fans in Boston. Appreciate greatness one time for me. Or hear it from the players themselves…
Tuukka Rask is good.
Rask will go for history tomorrow night as the Bruins host the New York Rangers. LFG.
