Rask stopped 25 of 26 shots in a 6-1 win over the Flyers on Saturday. The win moved him to 23-13-3 with a 2.08 GAA and .930 SV% on the season. Tonight he will go head-to-head with his former teammate Tim Thomas. Rask is 2-0-0 with a 1.50 GAA and .943 SV% against the Panthers this season.
Rask has only made one start in the last 11 days, so he should be well rest to face the Flyers this afternoon. He has just one win in his last five starts, but the long break should have helped rejuvenate the Finnish netminder. Roll him out as you usually would!

Although Rask started on Sunday, the Bruins are off until Saturday after today's game so there is a good chance that they turn to their number-1 this afternoon. Rask allowed two goals on 37 shots in a 3-2 shootout loss to the Blackhawks yesterday afternoon. The two goals he allowed were soft, but he otherwise played very well. He will take on the Kings for the second time this month, the first time he was yanked after he allowed three goals on 18 shots in the first 21:45 of the contest.
Rask allowed four goals on 26 shots in a loss to the Maple Leafs on Tuesday. He draws another tough matchup this afternoon in a Stanley Cup rematch from last season. Rask enters play with a 2-3-0 record, 3.00 GAA and .898 SV% this month.
Rask shut the door on all 26 shots that he faced in a 1-0 victory over the Sharks on Saturday. This is evidence that when an elite goalie like Rask is struggling, you can't panic and you run with your big guns. He had allowed 17 goals in his previous five starts, but that can be forgotten after a strong performance like he had on Saturday. Tonight he will face the Maple Leafs for the second time this season, he stopped 34 of 35 shots in a 3-1 win in November.
Bergeron was held out of the Bruins' morning skate, but will face the Maple Leafs tonight. Bergeron has been held off of the score sheet in his last three games, but had a five-game point streak prior to that. He has totalled 25 points (10G / 15A) with a plus-15 rating in 45 games.

Rask gave up five goals on 20 shots in a loss to the Ducks on Tuesday and has struggled recently, but I would be surprised if the Bruins turned to Chad Johnson vs. a tough opponent like Los Angeles.
