The Boston Bruins are on to their first Stanley Cup Final since 2013, and much of that is thanks to the outstanding play of Tuukka Rask between the pipes.

Over this postseason run, Rask is 12-5 with a 1.84 goals against average and a .942 save percentage. Not too shabby.

His numbers are slightly better than Tim Thomas’ during Boston’s 2011 Cup run, but how close are the two goaltenders?
