Rask started 60-plus games from 2015-to-2017 but was limited to just 53 starts in 2018. Despite a few less starts for the ageing netminder, Rask won 34 games with a 2.36 GAA, .917 SV% and three shutouts. Playing behind one of the strongest teams in the NHL, Rask should be in-line for a lot of wins in 2019, but draws a tough matchup out of the gate. Rask was 13-8-2 with a 2.51 GAA, .915 SV% and three shutouts on the road last year.

Rask allowed two goals on 28 shots in the Bruins win over the Lightning on Thursday. Rask has won three in a row while allowing just five goals on 95 shots (.947 SV%). Rask is expected to start the next three games for Boston and comes into Saturday at 20-5-3 with a 2.24 GAA and .920 SV% on home ice.

Rask gave up five goals on 25 shots in the Bruins overtime loss to the Blue Jackets on Monday. It was a rare loss for Rask, who is 5-0-1 with a 3.14 GAA and .886 SV% in March. With Anton Khudobin started on Wednesday so look for Rask to be back between the pipes tonight in Dallas.
