Bruins' Tuukka Rask: Held out of practice Friday

Rask missed practice Friday due to what coach Claude Julien is calling "general soreness," Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

The same type of soreness caused Rask to miss a start against the Maple Leafs last Saturday, but the prognosis continues to be associated with the day-to-day injury label. As of Friday afternoon, the Bruins have not called up a goalie for insurance purposes, which plays to the idea that his soreness is not too serious of an issue. Anton Khudobin should get the starting nod if Rask proves unfit to face the Habs on Saturday.
