Rask stopped 24 of 25 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

This was a huge game for both Rask and the Bruins, as it put an end to a four-game skid in which the Finnish netminder had allowed 15 goals on just 95 shots (an .842 save percentage). Boston needed this game, and Rask stepped up against fellow countryman Pekka Rinne, carrying a shutout well into the third period before settling for a one-goal gem. Consistency's been the issue for him this year, as he's vacillated between hot streaks and slumps. After last season saw him register a career-low save percentage (aside from his four-game NHL stint at age 20), it's even lower this year, suggesting that Rask may in fact never return to being an elite goalie. Of course, that doesn't mean he isn't valuable in a lot of fantasy formats.
