Tuukka Rask is opting out of the playoffs and has left the bubble to be with his family. I wouldn't be surprised if he's not the first (that goes for the NBA too). Tough to be sealed in a bubble away from family for months. Family should come first. He's doing it mainly for his family, of course, but he also talked at length yesterday about how the atmosphere at these games is a real drag. He said it's been pretty hard for him to treat these games as anything more than exhibitions, considering the conditions.

Tuukka Rask Situation -
I completely understand anybody during these times not wanting to risk their health, their loved ones and the population as a whole's health; however isn't this a 'Bubble Environment' to an extent like the NBA?
How selfish. Good riddance. Real nice teammate. This is a guy you don't want to be trapped in a bunker with. He's the guy when you're running from zombies - he stabs you in back and offers you up as a sacrifice so he can escape.
Goalies are known to be 'Me First' primadona nuts - they're legit loons on their own island.
Cut this guy immediately. Let him go back to Finland, Norway Sweden or whatever Commie country he comes from.
Selfish me first prick who only cares about himself and not his teammates.
It's all about him -

Timing of 22 hours before Game 3 sucked, but they won, so...

Jack Edwards on the injury to Carolina's Andrei Svechnikov:
Jack is crazier than Nicholson in The Shining.

Orange Crush vs. Habs 8pm (est)
Thinking the Orange and Black take this one in 5.
Hosers just woke up a sleeping giant.

How's that for a bounce back game from Carter Hart. A shutout. This kid just turned 22 4 days ago folks. It's going to over a decade of dominance from the Orange Crush with Hart between the pipes

There's something underwhelming about his on ice presence. Since he played his junior career in Seattle I wonder if there's any desire from him on finishing his NHL career with the Kraken?

Look at this Carter Hart folks.
Shutting out the Habs again.
2-0 in the 3rd
Just turned 22 - he's a Roy/Brodeur/Belfour/Fuhr/Hasek hybrid out there

Back to Back shutouts in the playoffs.
That's 6 periods of shutout hockey to you and me folks.
Will anybody ever score on Carter Hart again?
FLY OR DIE!
