    While I think the Bruins will be worse this year, Rask is too talented and too good of a goalie for him to do terrible. I think this is just a rough start for him

    Likely (and hopefully) given his history. But he did look awful this last game and to be honest has not looked good in any of his games so far.

    Don't bite and sell him now that he's 'low.' I would personally hold onto him in a keeper/dynasty format. If you must trade him, do so after he strings together a series of strong starts- and he will

    If you trade him now, you’ll get 0 value for him. Just wait it out guys. Don’t be like the guy who dropped Eberle in my league, it’s a long season and Rask has about 60 more starts left in him.

    I'm beginning to lower my expectations a tad after the horrendous start, but I still believe Rask will bounce back and have a statistically acceptable season.

    Hold off on the knee-jerk reactions and fire sales fellas - if you really have to trade him at least wait for a streak.

    Agreed, no selling low, that was a given to me. However, as I said earlier, I am willing to overpay to get a goalie who will very likely put up better stats, such as Holtby (Rask+Marner+Rantanen; so give up some future F potential for an improvement in G now and foreseeable future). That to me is a reasonable overpayment. But I wouldn't trade him say for Halak right now.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    He should be good for that stat line. I'm confident about the 30, the .920 will be close.

    I have six one-year teams, and on two of them I was at a point in the draft where I had to take a goalie. My #1 ranked G at that point was Rask (my ranking was 1.Price, 2.Hank, 3.Rask, 4.Rinne, 5.Holtby). But even though I spent weeks creating those pre-draft rankings, a gut feeling made me throw everything out the window in less than 60 seconds and I took Holtby instead (Rinne must've been gone I guess...).

    Today, I should light a candle every day for that decision.

    Lol that is very lucky. Imagine having Rask instead of Holtby

    I don't know if there is a better word to describe his start of the year because it's been worse than just awful.
    Keeper's league, points only, 24 teams league Skaters: 1 pt for goal and 1 pt for assist, Goalie, 2 pts for win, + 2 pts for SO

    I did the exact opposite in one of my leagues. Had Holtby ranked higher and took Rask over him at the last second based on a gut feeling. Must have been a bad burrito
