Rask allowed one goal on 23 shots in the Bruins’ win over the Red Wings on Saturday. Rask has gone 2-3-0 with a 2.65 GAA and .906 SV% in November but it will take some time for his numbers to start to look like the Rask numbers we are used to seeing. Tonight he faces a Sharks team that has won each of it’s first two games to start their road trip.

Rask leads the Bruins onto the ice for warmups.

Rask made 36 saves on 37 shots in the Bruins win over the Islanders on Sunday. The win snapped an ugly two-game losing streak where Rask allowed a combined eight goals. His overall numbers (3.22 GAA / .891 SV%) are still ugly and not where you would like them to be, but he draws a solid matchup tonight with Colorado in town.

The Avalanche have assigned Nikita Zadorov to San Antonio (AHL).

Zadorov served as a healthy scratch in three of the last four games. He was a minus-3 in just 10:36 on Thursday and and is a minus-5 on the season. Zadorov was a key piece in the Ryan O’Reilly trade, but is viewed as a bit of a project. He has an extremely projectable frame and a nasty side to his game, but he hasn’t fully developed into an everyday NHL defenseman yet. The AHL will allow him more ice time and freedom to grow.

He has another horrible matchup tonight vs. Washington—the Capitals have averaged 3.27 goals per game through four games.
