Another annoying trait of Tuuka is that he leaves the front of the net wide open trying to see shot. He actually leaves the crease. I see no other goalie in playoffs using this strategy.
Time to move on from Tuuka. All the other series there is no goaltender that slides on his knees every time puck goes behind net. There is no future with this goalie. Time to get rid of that ridiculous salary.
WOW! Thanks Felger & Mazz... they just went over some stats and Tuukka came up only being average... overrated, over paid, and always out of position!!! You're not ELITE you're just average at BEST!!! Please go away! Felger & Mazz are still ripping RASK and they keep showing the series winning goal with RASK way out of position.... I love it! It's about time! Thanks guys!!!
I agree he was way out Of the net on that last goal have no idea what he was defending maybe he did not want puck to hit boards behind net. Let's face it this guy is not elite. He would have been exposed more if we were playing against a team that has offensive players and not a team that clogs up the middle,
WOW! You two below are morons! Did you see how far out of position he was in the OT series ending goal!!! You can't defend that... he SUCKS! He's SOFT! He lacks MENTAL fortitude!!! Felger & Mazz are saying right now as I type to dump this SIV!! The defense isn't responsible for him being out of positon... call it for what it is... Tuukka is highly overrated and is not ELITE so SUCK IT!!!!!
Maybe he was out of position a bit but he kept them in the game. That goal was not tuukkas fault he kept them in the OT. If you think this series was tuukkas fault you know nothing. The OT goal today defense should have been there he was wide open not tuukkas fault.
If the Bruins ever moved to the next round rangers would have scored at will on Tuuka. His angle play is awful- stay in the net do not abandon it. He stinks.
Nothing Tuuka does gives me a feeling of confidence- e had shots that leaked trough him and went wide. He mishandled puck behind net quite a few times allowing more shots by Ottawa. He was out of position after initial shots only to have Ottawa shoot wide or shots were blocked by Bruins. Tuuka is shaky in victory or defeat.
I've said time and time again Rask is not a Money goalie certainly not worth 7 Mill I wouldn't put Rask in the top twenty NHL Goalies! Tummy ache or not most important game of the year get rid him and while you're at it get rid of Neely he's in way over his head
Only goalie that commits himself to one save only frequently gets himself way out of position for rebounds etc.once initial stop. Rebound control is awful.
