Bruins Tuukka Rask Leaves Game With Injury
BOSTON (AP) — Boston goaltender Tuukka Rask has left Saturday's game against the New York Islanders with an injury in the second period.
Rask, attempting to kick out his left pad on a shot midway into the second period, went down to the ice in pain.
He was helped off — with two players holding an arm each as he skated off — and he was replaced by Tim Thomas with 10:59 left in the period with the score tied at 1.
It was unclear what was the injury.
