Bob DeChiara / USA Today Sports
Tuukka Rask is good to go.
The Boston Bruins goaltender was forced to miss Saturday's game against the New York Islanders with a lower-body injury, but after Monday's practice, in which he was a full participant, Rask said it felt good to get back on the ice, and he expects to remain in the lineup for the balance of the regular season in an attempt to help secure a playoff spot.
Rask confident he's good moving forward. When he was asked if he was worried that it will crop up again: "No I don't think so."

Backup Anton Khudobin came up big in the win over the Islanders, but expect Rask to get the majority - if not all - of the remaining seven starts as the Bruins look to nail down their first playoff appearance in three years.
