BOSTON -- It doesn’t seem to matter who is in net for the Boston Bruins lately.
Whether it is starter Tuukka Rask or backup Jonas Gustavsson, the Bruins’ have limited opponents to two or fewer goals in six of their 10 games in December, including Sunday afternoon’s 2-1 shootout victory over the New Jersey Devils at TD Garden.
“When your backup goaltender can give you games like that, it just makes your team that much better,” Bruins coach Claude Julien said of Gustavsson, who made 29 saves Sunday.
