Fantasy Analysis
The shutout was Tuukka Rask's third of the postseason, with the effort lifting his save percentage to a playoff-best .946 and lowering his GAA to spiffy 1.64. Should the Bruins -- who are up 2-1 over the Hawks at present -- prevail in the series, Rask would be a Conn Smythe Trophy frontrunner. (Updated 6/18/13).

Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask had 28 saves in Boston's 2-0 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 3 of the NHL Finals. Rask weighed in on the win after the game.
Tuukka Rask was excellent in a backup role last season, posting a record of 11-8-3 and a 2.05 GAA to go along with a .929 save percentage. With former Vezina Trophy winner Tim Thomas planning to sit out the upcoming campaign, Rask is primed for a big jump up our rankings in his role as the BruinsÂ’ starting netminder. If the unflappable Finn stays healthy, the 25-year-old has massive fantasy upside playing behind the defensively responsible Bruins. (Updated 8/14/12)
