- Watch as the Boston Bruins honour legendary goaltender Tuukka Rask with a touching retirement ceremony and video before he performs a ceremonial puck drop at TD Garden.
2 u’s 2 k’s 2 many memories. Thanks Tuukka!🙏
Super Elite Goalie… we were lucky to have him for as long as we did!
just another reminder at the Leafs inept management to let this one get away!
@@juanito1975 nhl is a business they dont care if their team wins as long as they’re making money
Gotta respect the talent for sure!!
Toronto Draft Pick !
can't help but feel bad for how it ended but glad he got a good send off if nothing else
Scary that the core Bruins I've watched while growing up are all very close to retirement now or already retired. Congrats Tuukka, one of the greatest to ever play for the black and gold.
Like Mcavoy, Pasternak, Swayman, and Lysell?
@@Kevlar67476 Not sure if you're trying to be a smart ass, but I'm referring to the guys from 2010-2015. Iconic names I grew up hearing game after game. I do love those 4 you listed. I share the same alma mater as Swayman so I've been watching him excel for years.
@@MrMcfly125 not sure if you are a dumb ass but 2015 was 7 years ago
@@Kevlar67476 Fabian Lysell, who hasn't played a single game in the NHL, is part of the Bruins' core now?
@@hankdasilva3817 thats right Hank
as a habs fan, he was a great goalie, enjoy retirement and the life with your 3 young girls Tuukka !
3 girls!
Even though I hate Boston cuz I’m a habs fan…I have to admit he was a good goalie
@@blackandgold676 thanks 👌
Even though we are rivals to the core, I appreciate all the good fans you guys have up north. One of my top bucket list items to tick off is seeing a B's-Habs game at the Bell Centre.
Tuulkka Falling when he slammed his stick when he lost in OT shootout against the HABS will always be my favorite moment of his career, lol 😂
Great goalie and with one of the most epic goalie masks of all time!
As a Bruins fan I’ve personally always loved Tuukks and it makes me sad to see how much hate he gets from other Bruins fans for stuff that’s not really his fault. Enjoy your retirement Tuukka! 💛🖤
The most vocal fans are usually the most negative. He was a hell of a goalie and his priorities are firmly where they belong. Thanks for the ride Tuukka, all the best and I hope we see you soon as maybe color guest or just in the management box taking in the game.
I'll be happy to see the Rask family stick around so Tuukka can be the Bruins Goaltender Coach for the foreseeable future.
Ya definitely. He was, is, and ALWAYS will be one of my favorites EVER
Thanks for everything Tuukka… got too much hate from our fans but grateful for all the great seasons
This brought tears to my eyes. Man I love this guy so much.
What did Rask do? He lost 3 Stanley Cups. He walked out on his team during the Covid Protocol (the only player in the NHL to do so) and in 2011 when the Bruins won, he had lost his starting job to Tim Thomas and never saw a second of ice time during the playoffs. Oh yeah, he also finished that year with about twice as many losses as wins. Rask is a playoff bum, a regular season superstar. He will never have his number retired, nor does he ever deserve to.
@@phillipleblanc7823 ok Phillip
@@phillipleblanc7823 he got to the finals more times than Thomas did, and any nhl'er will tell you, it's about as hard to even get there as it is to win it. You sound like a clown.
I am huge Bruins fan from Croatia and Tukka was my favorite bear, I love him to death
One of the best goalies of all time congrats Tuuka!
Absolutely love this ceremony for Tuukks! What a guy.
TUUUUKKKKKAAAAA!!!
TUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKK
It was so loud there
Kiitoksia Tuukka hieno ura 👍👍🤟🤟
Lovely ceremony, enjoy your retirement Tuukka 🖤💛
Oh, nowwwwww Bruins fans love him. Get real, they wanted his head in a vice half the time he was there. He "couldnt win in the playoffs". Most under-appreciated player in the history of Boston sports. And one of the best.
If you knew enough about it you'd recognize the large segment that didn't feel that way. People always notice the complainers, it's not unlike how I ended up replying to you here.
@@fromulus Not ALL bruins fans big guy... don't get your Superman undies in a wad.
It's sad to see both Pekka Rinne and Tukka Rask retire in the same year. :(
Ya really sad to get rid of 2 chokers lmao
@@Ylinatsiperkele The best Finnish goalies ever! I miss both of them.
@@Ylinatsiperkele but pekka rinne is just too good right now
Excellent highlight film. The fight was the best. Can't beat a goalie throwing haymakers.
I can't help but look at his face and feel he wants to still be on the ice. Boston hockey legend
Of course he does. But he chose his family over his first love and that shows what kind of man he is. Much respect from a Wings fan.
@@wings193 Well it's actually his hip injury prevent him from the ice
Rask is a bruins legend.
i’m a Habs fan but hey i got so much respect for that guy ….great carreer 👍👍👍👍
As a Bruins fan I will pay my respect to your HOF goalie Carey Price when he retires. I loved watching him play....except against my Bruins.
I think Habs fans liked Rask better than Bruins fans
Thank you tuukka for your time in Boston you will always be my favourite bruins goalie we love you!!!!!
Bruins fans stayed true to their traditions by hating and trashtalking Rask right until the end.
Their Vezina-winning goalie, who leads their franchise in wins and took them to the Stanley Cup Finals twice, who only ever spoke good things about the city of Boston and its people, and explicitly stated that he doesn't want to play anywhere else.
The last thing he got to hear while on the ice in his final NHL game was the Boston home crowd chanting "We want Swayman!"
He also walked out on his team for Covid bullshit you angry little man
What did Rask do? He lost 3 Stanley Cups. He walked out on his team during the Covid Protocol (the only player in the NHL to do so) and in 2011 when the Bruins won, he had lost his starting job to Tim Thomas and never saw a second of ice time during the playoffs. Oh yeah, he also finished that year with about twice as many losses as wins. Rask is a playoff bum, a regular season superstar. He will never have his number retired, nor does he ever deserve to.
@@phillipleblanc7823 yeah he walked out during the covid protocol because his daughter got seriously ill..... So please shut up
@@phillipleblanc7823 he left for his daughters..lmao
@@phillipleblanc7823 horrible take, he for one left for his sick daughter, second he didn't lose his starting job, that was Thomas's job regardless of the year prior, and the only reason they got back to the cup twice was because of his play
Thank You Tukka Rask 😭
Tuukka has the sickest goalie mask every. I'm super late I was watching Bruins/Rangers game today saying where's Tuukka and just now found out he retired lol. I hope he enjoys his retirement and spending more time with his family Boston you guys had a great goalie!!!
Thank you Tuuka. Best of health enjoy your beautiful family 👪 ❤️
Thanks tuuuukkeeerr
I hate the Bruins with a passion, never liked the damn B's, but I have always loved Tuuka, happy to see him riding off into the sunset with a smile of his face
Hyvä Tuukka! Hyvä Boston, kaikkea hyvää Tuukalle! Terveiset Suomesta.
Hän on hyvä Suomalainen mies. Jumalan rauha Tuukka.
He made me a boston fan, great team and a great city. i saw my first ever nhl game when visiting there. bought a bruins cap which i now always wear.
Respect to you Tuukka. Wish we never traded you in hope for Raycroft and Pogge to be good
Rask is Pure Talent. To Hall of Fame! 🔥
leafs legend
Great career Tuukka!
Congrats on your retirement Tuukka, and good job with your successfully carree. Boston as my second favorite NHL team and one of my favorite goaltenders 🥅🏒🥇 of all time along with Price and Fluery.
as a leaf fan ( never said i was smart ) im so glad that we didnt ruin his will to live by making him play for the laughs i mean leafs ...good on ya TUUUUUUUUKAAA !
From a Bruins fan...thank you. You have more sense than the boston Rask haters.
@@kbaer3038 thanks man he was a pleasure to watch and a fine person im told and just so you know im not all stupid when the leafs are out of the playoffs im a big bad bruins fan
@@drewcipher666 Your boys are playing great. AM is not human!! Good luck this season.
@@kbaer3038 this is how it always looks but I'm a realist I'm 60 years old and a leafs fan...leaf's motto there's always next year
Thank you Finland for letting Boston borrow Tuuk for 15 seasons. Gonna miss him here in Beantown
What a save by Rask!
He was definitely one of THE GREATEST goalies EVER. I am SO HAPPY with Ullmark and Swayman, and even Kinkaid now, but I miss watching Tuukka. I especially loved it when Jack said "2 u's, 2 k's, 2 points."
Ad a Leafs fan, enjoy the future Tukka.
Tuuuukka! Thanks for the memories!
Won the vezina during his second year as a starter. He developed fast but he was already a good goalie in the eyes of scouts. Wonder what his, career would of been like of the Leafs kept him.
He would have lost in the first round of the playoffs more
@@mattc4284 Maybe, but with him in net. It's a totally different team and he's way better than all of the goalies the Leafs had since trading him for Andrew Raycroft. Andrew Raycroft did when the Calder trophy but after the next season 2005/2006 Raycroft only won 8 games out of the 28 he started. Which Toronto decide to take a leap of faith sorely on his Calder win believing he will develop fast and is already proven he can be a starter. Raycroft first season they make him play 71 games where he won 37 games almost getting the Leafs to the playoffs. During the shorten season due to the lockout. Raycroft won only 2 games.
One of The SEVEN - Goalie Seasons !
@@holoholopainen1627 since they traded him
Boston trades Andrew Raycroft to Toronto for goaltending prospect TUUKKA RASK.
FLEEEEEEEECED THE MAPLE JETS!
Toronto-Dominion Bank is that the name of their arena?
Tuukka Rask is retiring already from hockey wow!
He was injured - body wasn’t recovering as he wanted it to after hip surgery
@@_andthelike ok that probably makes sense about that
He retired too early
Leafs legend.
Leafs legend
The fact that they included the milk crate incident and his reaction is so awesome
Nah all the good goalies retiring 😞. First Lundqvist, Rinne, Now Tukka and Potentially Price man
Did they retire Tim Thomas yet??
How many other goalies with that many wins can say one out of every five or six were shutouts
Hoorah Tuuka!
End of an era. Linus....you got big pads to fill bub
Whoops, just realized that i missed spelled Tuukka Rask's full name but anyway i will be and Forever a Boston Bruins fan even though i have lived in Cleveland, Ohio my whole life as i mentioned earlier till the day i die and go to the Big Rink in the sky ! 😉 Hey that rimyes , LOL...
Bruins legend
Still cant believe we gave this guy 1 for 1 for Raycroft... :D
Awesome thanks for your time,trophy,playoff,will miss you!
It is so sad to see him go. After I heard the news I broke down in tears. I will miss him and I will never forget him 💛🖤
Overrated Tuukka Rask Loses
will they freeze rask shirt i hope so
Averaged 20.4 wins per season? That doesn’t seem right ?
Tuuuuuk
Started with a milkcrate now we're here.
Always blackn gold
They should have had this ceremony when the played the Lerfs
this video made me so sad
Lets hope it’s not carry price next just the best goalies starting to retire
and still a young tendy
Tuukka!
Starting the tribute w the milk crate incident is elite
😏
Maple Leafs Legend
Feels bad for Carlo
Hey there fellow Bruins fans... Been a Bruins fan for 60 of my soon to be 67 years ( started getting into watching ice hockey on TV and going to the old Cleveland Arena down on Euclid Avenue when the AHL Cleveland Barons were still around hereand playing games ) of my life back when my Favorite player #7 " Mr. Phil Esposito " started playing for the Bruins... However , i do agree with John L. 's comment about Toukka Raskes leaving the team to be with a daughter that had just the Sniffels & a Mild flu bug which resulted in the Bruins NOT winning the Stanley Cup during the year of the NHL fan lock out , they were sure to be Champions that year and his departure most definitely cost the Bruins that Stanley Cup !!! 😲 Oh Well , it was it was and how it happened and the Bruins " should " win it All this year... Fingers Crossed for sure... 🤗
The fans aren't the ones his daughter needed when she was sick and I don't care if it was a boo-boo, a sniffle, or what else. If he felt that was his responsibility so be it and the hell with anything else. If you or anyone else puts a bunch of strangers' feelings and needs in front of your little girl's feelings and needs, then I'll tel you to your face you're not much of a man.
so your telling everyone beyond a shadow of a doubt that the bruins would have won the cup if rask had stayed?if thats the case then they should have multiple titles under him but they only have one.its a team sport and if your team is gd enough u can make do with the players u have.
Hey a K. S. ~ uhm , Sorry to not agree with you , but that Bruins team was Kicking Ass all that season long and if i remember correctly , they had the Best Record too , were ranked # 1 going into the playoffs ( had the Best Record of All the other teams too ) and i do believe that they would have gone All the Way and won the Stanley Cup becuz Tuukka Rask was having an Awesome Season ! Granted the rest of team was also Very Solid in their play performance , but not the 2 backup goalies who were just Average... Looked how they ( the backup goalies) played after he left the team... They looked like a pair of Swiss Cheese players with so many holes in them by allowing the simple goals to get by them and i would have bet the Last Dollar in my pocket that Rask would not have let that many goals get past him ! You can't win games when they ( the backups ) were giving up more goals then the team could score ! Now as far as his family situation goes , again reports had it that the daughter Didn't have COVID - 19 , only a mild cold or flu bug that the wife could have taken care of and so he should have Stayed and helped his team to Win It All becuz the Bruins had not won The Cup since Tim Thomas had takened them All the Way prior and Rask was never again that Great since that season... Good , but not Great ! Also , i'm a Father & a Grandfather for Many Years ( of one sibling each ) and unless ethier one of these sibling were on their Death Beds , i would have stayed to play and help my team to get that Stanley Cup becuz the odds were on their favor to Win it All... In fact , my kid sister was dying from Stage 4 Cancer several years ago and she told to Stay Out on the road ( becuz i've been a tractor - tralier driver off and on for over 44 of my 66 years of being alive ) and not to be Hovering over her ( even though her & i were Very Close all of our lives ) due to the fact that she knew was Not going to be able to beat this Cancer this time around as she had 3 times prior over a 5 year period... Now before you go and make a Smart - Ass remark in regards to what i just printed , i was there to see her take her Last Breath of Life and also see a Single Tear roll out of her right eye too and it's Nothing like what you see in the movies when a person dies , NOTHING CLOSE TO IT !!! 😲😲😲 Will be 8 years coming up this August... Sighs ! 😭
@@russellgreco3720 I'm not answering for anyone else and I didn't read all of your reply. I just wasnt you to be aware of something. The Boston Bruins are the reason the playoffs are seven game series in the NHL. The league was shocked they lost in a best of five, as they dominated the regular season. My point here is the regular season record means NOTHING in the playoffs. The only record that matters in the playoffs is 16 wins.
@@russellgreco3720 so how do u explain the tampa bay lightning when just a few years ago they kicked everyones ass and had the best record in the regular season.they got 2 the playoffs and lost the only 4 games they played.i dont recall anyone leaving the team they just ran out of gas by the time they got 2 the postseason..saying that the bruins lost the cup because rask left is just plain dumb.
“306 wins, best of an original 6 franchise”
Carey Price has 360…
He meant Rask has the most wins in the history of the Bruins who are an original 6 franchise
I think he was only referring to the bruins when he said an original six franchise. I agree it was confusing but, I don’t think he meant of all original six teams.
@@Antsapantsa original 6 = 6 NHL teams… if he meant Boston he would’ve said Boston. No need to bring up 5 other teams unless you’re comparing to them. Idk that’s how I interpret it. Their commentator is horrible for many reasons lmao
@@AL-31 That's because Jack Edwards is an absolute idiot.
@@AL-31 I agree he miss spoke but the reason he'd bring it up not to compare but it's more impressive to have that franchise record on an original 6 team as oppose to an expansion team. Like Fleurys Franchise record for wins in vegas isnt that impressive not that he isnt a great goalie its just there hasnt been time for anyone to break it yet
I didn’t realize he retired. I still remember when Toronto traded him to Boston. That was a stupid move. I seen him play and thought he was going to be a long term goalie for us but nope. Stupid trade. What it been like if he was with the leafs 😂 well congrats 👏
Price better
2 U's 2 K's 0 cups!
Leafs legend
Poor guy....., retired with only a few hundred million dollars while he was still young.... so sad..
That Said IT ALL !
Why did he retire 😰🖤💛💛🖤🤍🤍
Was never a big fan of his honestly
And to think Toronto gave him up for absolutely nothing.
Leafs traded Rask, Tyler Seguin, Tomas Kaberle and Dougie Hamilton for Andrew Raycroft, Joe Colborne and Phil Kessel. Ouch
He gave the Bruins so many chances to win and he stole so many games. Yeah, except the games when all the chips were on the table. Those games HE LOST!!!
I guess the rest of the team had NOTHING to do with those losses.
never liked him didn´t seem to be a cool guy
Mid career
says the leafs fan
Meh doesn't matter how much I hate the Bruins, Tukka Rask was an incredible goalie.
@@redrazr6269 calm down I was just joking bud
Rask was great while it lasted. But his actions were unforgiveable. Period.
And stop believing the "my daughter's health is more important" excuse. She was at home recovering from normal flu after a short visit to the hospital emergency room. I believe this "honor" for his retirement is the best the Front Office could do for him since his number will never be raised.
You're insane if you seriously think Rask won't have #40 up in the Garden rafters someday. He leads in too many all-time goalie stats for the franchise, for them to not give him that honor.
as a Bruin's fan, I don't have anything against Rask but I gotta say, he was pretty overrated
Leads an original six teams in wins. Sure sign of being over-rated
What’s the big fuss? Leafs did the same thing with Raycroft and Pogge.
Yes, but the Leaf suck!
Yeh, but Tuukk was great... so, ya know.
Who?
The only “big fuss” was Tukka after every goal…crying to the refs
Why did the leafs honor someone who left the leafs and spent most of his career in Boston. And hey leafs gotta be able to celebrate something since they can’t win anything.
What a joke? Really??
How is it a joke? Leader in career wins for the franchise. An original 6 team. A team with nearly 100 years of history.
