    Default Tuukka Rask granted a leave of absence

    Not much information available. Personal reasons is all I've seen, hopefully nothing major. Anyone know more?

    Sweeney: #Nhlbruins Rask leave of absence not health related and could be as short as “few days” but no timeline

    Would make sense his play if something is happening in his family. Take the time off and get everything in your life figured out. Could even go back as far as when they signed Halak, 10mill on goalies is a lot.

    I'm completely speculating, but this is probably something to do with a sick family member. Seems to happen to a few players each year and, for privacy reasons, this is usually how teams handle it.
    12 team, H2H, salary cap
    1 pt/G or A, 2 pts/W, 1 pt/OTL, 1 pt/SO

    Forward: B. Point, M. Necas, A. Debrincat, T. Zegras, J. Bratt, L. Raymond
    Defense: J. Morrissey, A. DeAngelo, S. Gostisbehere, D. Doughty
    Goalie: T. Demko, E. Merzlikins
    Bench: M. Rossi, C. Glass, M. Maccelli, M. Dumba, K. Shattenkirk, F. Andersen
    Prospects of Note: L. Stankoven, J. Lekkerimaki, D. Yurov, B. Clarke

    League has been running continuously since 1997-98
