Bruins can breathe sigh of relief: Rask able to practice

A welcome sight to say the least.

Boston Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask was on the practice ice Friday afternoon. He was forced to exit an eventual 2-1 loss to the Nashville Predators on Thursday after taking a Roman Josi slap shot off the mask.

Rask has been indispensable for the Bruins, and is really the driving force behind the club's success through the first half of the season. He has a .926 save clip, five shutouts, and 21 of the Boston's 22 victories in 34 starts.
