Bruins' Tuukka Rask: Signs PTO with Bruins
Tuukka Rask has signed a professional tryout agreement with the Boston Bruins on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.ca reports.This is a shocker as Rask retired from the Bruins on Feb. 9. 2022. The 36-year-old netminder spent his entire 15-year NHL career with Boston, after he was drafted in the first round in 2005 by the Maple Leafs. He has hip surgery in July of 2021 to repair a torn labrum, but he had difficulty in his return to action, as he played only four games during the 2021-22 campaign before retiring.

Bruins' Tuukka Rask: Gets early hook Tuesday
Tuukka Rask gave up five goals on 12 shots before being replaced by Linus Ullmark to begin the second period of Tuesday's 7-1 loss to the Hurricanes.In only his second start of the season since rejoining the Boston Bruins, Rask got hung out to dry by his defense, and the goaltending switch was more to send a message to the team than about Rask's own performance. He's been alternating starts with Ullmark since being added to the roster, and if the pattern holds Rask might not be between the pipes again until Saturday against the Jets, giving him plenty of time to shake this one off.
