Tuukka Rask continues success against Maple Leafs

If there’s one team in all of the National Hockey League that Tuukka Rask enjoys playing against, it’s the Toronto Maple Leafs. For those of you who may not remember, Rask was drafted by Toronto with the 21st overall pick in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft before being traded to the Bruins for Andrew Raycroft.

Advantage: Bruins.

Thanks to Rask’s and the Bruins’ home-and-home sweep of the Maple Leafs, the Finnish netminder’s numbers against the team that drafted him have improved to 13-3-1. Rask has a 1.80 goals-against average, a .937 save percentage and two shutouts in 19 career games against the Leafs.
