Friday! Today’s the last day before the playoffs begin, folks.
Drink in these tranquil, take-free days. They aren’t long for this world.
You could argue for days about certain aspects of this Bruins-Caps match-up: who has the better forwards? Better first line? Better defense????
You get the point.
However, the one area where the Bruins appear to have a distinct advantage is between the pipes.
Tuukka Rask is better than either of the Capitals’ young goaltenders, and given his lighter workload this season, should be (please) good to go.
For Washington, Peter Laviolette has decided, for whatever reason, to play a guessing game with everyone.
