The Bruins might be one step closer to getting Tuukka Rask back, as Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy outlined how his return could come together.
Rask, who had hip surgery this offseason and remains without a contract, has been practicing with the Bruins for several weeks. On Tuesday, following his team’s morning skate, Cassidy told reporters Rask looks good.
“I’ve watched him for years, so I’m stating the obvious,” Cassidy said. “He’s an excellent goaltender, technically sound. Not a lot of wasted movements for Tuukka.”
Cassidy added that the Bruins could soon have conversations about Rask making a rehab appearance with the Providence Bruins, potentially as soon as this weekend.
