Bruins' Tuukka Rask: Answers bell with shutout against Stars

Rask spun a 27-save shutout against Dallas for a 2-0 win Thursday.

Analysis:

Rask hasn't been the most popular guy in Boston this year thanks to his inconsistent play, but it looks like he's found something in these last two starts (51 saves on 52 shots, two wins). If anyone's capable of parlaying this into an extended hot streak, it's Rask, who was one of the NHL's leading goalies before hitting a sudden and unexpected decline over the course of this season and last. We're always waiting for that sign of him getting back the old mojo, and this pair of outings is as promising an omen as we've seen from Rask in a while.
