Bruins' Tuukka Rask: Returns to crease Tuesday

Rask will tend the twine for Tuesday's home tilt with Nashville, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports.

Analysis:

The Finnish netminder had been dealing with a lower-body issue that prevented him from traveling to Brooklyn on Saturday for the Bruins' most recent game, a 2-1 victory. Prior to his injury being announced, Rask had really struggled, going 0-4-0 with a 4.53 GAA and .842 save percentage. While he was awful in a 6-3 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday, a lot of the blame for the drop-off in Rask's play can be placed on Boston's team defense. The Bruins' defense looked better when defeating the Isles on Saturday, but with how inconsistent their play has been of late, take caution when considering Rask for your fantasy lineups.
