JAROSLAV HALAK NEWS

Tuesday start on tap Halak is in line to start Tuesday night's game against New Jersey, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.

Impact With Tuukka Rask (upper body) still out, Halak is slated to be backed up by Daniel Vladar, who is a candidate to start Thursday night's game against the Penguins. Bolstering Halak's cause Tuesday is that both Brad Marchand (COVID-19 protocol) and Brandon Carlo (upper body) are set to return to the Bruins' lineup.

Blackwood makes 40 saves for 1st SO, Devils top Bruins 1-0

Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 40 shots for his first shutout of the season, Kyle Palmieri scored and the New Jersey Devils held on to beat the Boston Bruins 1-0

MARCH 29, 2021 • Associated Press

Takes hard-luck loss Halak stopped 28 of 29 shots in Sunday's 1-0 loss to New Jersey.

Impact Halak was perfect aside from a Kyle Palmieri deflection goal late in the first period, but a depleted Bruins lineup -- with team scoring leader Brad Marchand (COVID-19 protocol) among the absences -- was unable to generate any offense at the other end of the rink. Halak has just one win in his last five starts (1-3-1), posting an .880 save percentage or worse in three of them. The 35-year-old dropped to 7-5-3 on the year with a 2.17 GAA and .919 save percentage.

Set for Sunday start Halak will defend the home net in Sunday's game against the Devils.

Impact Daniel Vladar gets the starting nod in Saturday's game versus the Sabres, so Halak will be in net Sunday. Halak has held his own in March, posting a .926 save percentage and a 3-2-2 record through seven appearances. He figures to garner the bulk of the starts as long as Tuukka Rask (upper body) is out.

Appears in relief Halak replaced an injured Tuukka Rask after the first period of Thursday's game and made 17 saves in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Impact Rask had just returned from an undisclosed injury, but lasted just a single period before exiting. There is no update on his status. Halak has allowed 12 goals in his last four appearances and at least three in three of those four. Expect him to step in the top role again until Rask can return, but watch for overuse challenges. Halak has been an outstanding 1B goalie in a platoon, so we need to see how the weight of additional games might affect his performance, if at all.
