Tuukka Goes Bonkos

And we all thought Tim Thomas had the worst temper. Last night following a 1-0 shootout loss to the Albany River Rats, Providence Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask showed his displeasure with the ruling of two questionable goals. He slammed his stick off the boards and proceeded to whip his stick across the ice, almost hitting teammate and everyone's favorite AHL name to say: Wacey Rabbit.




I can see why Tuukka's mad, I mean you stand on your head for 3 periods and an OT and then this debacle happens. The first goal scored against Tuukka is clearly not a goal. You cannot stop movement and shoot, the shootout is a continuously forward motion towards the net. On the 2nd goal, it's a little bit harder to tell whether Tuukka has a point of the puck hitting the crossbar but the ricochet of the puck outwards tells us that it may have been the case.
