with the lockout ongoing, and with no near end in sight, I seriously doubt well ever see Timmy Thomas back in net for the B’s.

so glad Rask is on the team, now we just need a solid netminder to fill Thomas’s void.

There is just that little point of never having been a starter, even though he has put in some serious time as a pro.

He was pretty stellar in Boston. Nobody could have known it would turn out the way it did. It is easy to make an argument that it was an good trade at the time, trading a prospect (unproven in the pros) for a young goalie who has proven himself and won the Calder.

I’m not sold on him being a starter yet. We’ve had plenty of one year wonders in Boston.

He was a first-round pick and was named the #1 goalie at the WJC before he got traded. The jury may still be out but it’s hard to see him becoming anything other than a solid starter in the NHL.

I would say, to a degree, the jury is still out on Rask. I love the Bruins and I’ve seen enough of him to know he’ll be solid for them. The only thing I haven’t seen from him is a full season as a starter. Can he be elite for an entire season and can he stay healthy for an entire season? This year is obviously unique bc it will be shortened (if they play at all). He was on a one year deal so I wonder how this effects things going forward.

I’d take back the Rask-for-Raycroft deal a million times before taking back the Kessel one.
