Some troubling news from Bruins PR today:
"Effective today, Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask has been granted a leave of absence relating to a personal matter."
Yikes.
It's not worth speculating on what's going on with Rask, so here's to hoping that everything is OK.
Expect the Bruins to call a goalie up from Providence shortly.
UPDATE (12:41 PM):
#NHLBruins general manager Don Sweeney on Tuukka Rask:
