Love this post. The team is atrocious in closeout games and has been since 2010. Rask is way down on the list of people to blame.
But its been a kinda long time since we were in this spot. Last time the WORST player on the ice who should not have dressed in playoff games thought it would be funny to squirt the best player on the ice with a water bottle after game 5.
