Joe Haggerty of NBC Boston: 33-year old Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask is entering the last year of his contract that carries a $7 million cap hit. The Bruins might not be able to afford to an extension. A flat salary cap for the next couple of seasons definitely won’t help the Bruins.
That said, the Bruins don’t have a lot salaries committed for the 2021-22 season. David Krejci‘s $7.5 million contract expires after next season as well.
Rask will be 35-years old when his next contract would kick in.
