(SportsNetwork.com) - Tuukka Rask had a first-hand look at how important Tim Thomas was to the Boston Bruins franchise. Rask and the Bruins will face their former teammate on Thursday night, when Thomas is expected to start for the Florida Panthers against visiting Boston. Thomas, a former ninth-round pick by the Quebec Nordiques in the 1994 draft, signed as a free agent with the Bruins in 2002 and made his NHL debut with the club that season, appearing in four games. He eventually became the No. 1 goaltender with the Bruins and went 196-121-45 in 378 regular-season games with the club. The 39-year-old also posted a postseason record of 29-21 in 50 games with the Bruins, logging a 2.07 goals against average and .933 save percentage. He won the Conn Smythe Trophy in 2011 after helping lead Boston to its first Stanley Cup title since 1972. Thomas, a two-time Vezina Trophy winner, played one more season with the Bruins before sitting out the lockout-shortened campaign. He became a free agent this past offseason and appeared in training camp with the Panthers on a professional tryout before signing a one-year deal just before the start of the season. Thomas has made three appearances with the Panthers, allowing nine goals on 60 shots faced. However, he has not played since exiting last Tuesdays game versus Philadelphia early with a groin injury. He is expected to play tonight, per Floridas official twitter account. "All those years shooting on him in practice and what not, I think itll be fun to finally shoot on him in a game and Im sure hes looking forward to it as well," said Bostons Milan Lucic. "Im sure hes happy to be back in the NHL playing and hes found a new home here in Florida." Thomas year off allowed Rask to grab hold of Bostons starting goaltender job after he spent the majority of his career backing up the former since being acquired from Toronto on June 24, 2006. Rask went 19-10-5 with a 9.29 GAA in 36 games last season, helping the Bruins get to the Stanley Cup Finals. "I never thought that we would play against each other. But Im glad that he made his comeback and proved people wrong again, and I hope he does well," said the 26-year-old Rask, who is 7-1-0 with a 0.86 GAA, .972 save percentage and three shutouts lifetime versus the Panthers. Boston will play three straight on the road after opening the season with four of five at home and lost for the second time in its past three games with Mondays 3-2 setback to Detroit. Loui Eriksson and Milan Lucic tallied for the Bruins, while Rask made 24 saves. "Were really struggling with our finish right now. The chances are there but goals are not coming easy," noted Bruins head coach Claude Julien. The Panthers, meanwhile, begin a six-game homestand and have lost five of seven to begin the season. They were last in action on Tuesday, a 4-3 setback to Nashville. Jonathan Huberdeau, Marcel Goc and Matt Gilroy netted goals in the loss, while Jacob Markstrom surrendered all four goals on 30 shots. "We did some good things tonight with our forecheck and creating turnovers," said Huberdeau. "We can look to build on that for our next game and get some of our mistakes straightened out." The Bruins won all three of their meetings with the Panthers a season ago, outscoring them 11-2. They have won nine of the last 11 encounters overall and six of the past seven in Florida.

"At 24, he has broken so many records," he added.WINNIPEG -- Even a $758,307 loss posted by the Blue Bombers last year couldnt keep Garth Buchko from being an optimist. The teams president and chief executive officer announced Tuesday the CFL club had an overall operating profit of $726,930 last year wiped out mainly because of delays in building the new $200-million Investors Group Field. Windy and frigid weather were factors in stadium development costs unexpectedly adding a $1.05-million bill, while the team also took a $434,287 hit for writing down Canad Inns Stadium assets that couldnt be taken to the new 33,500-seat facility on the University of Manitoba campus. "Looking back at 2012, it is easy to identify the disappointments we experienced," Buchko said. "However, at the risk of being called an optimist, which I certainly am, you cant build a world-class facility and team by focusing on the past." Buchko, who was criticized last year for announcing dates when the new stadium would open and then had to cancel games at the new facility all together in June, said its doors will open next month. A practice run is taking place May 26 for a multi-denominational prayer event. A Bombers exhibition game is scheduled for June 12 against Toronto and a sold-out Taylor Swift concert is slated for June 22. Last years loss was a sharp turnabout from the 2011 financial report, which saw the Bombers take in $3.01 million in net earnings from operations and an overall net profit of $2.3 million after stadium development costs. Winnipeg had an average attendance of 29,557 in 2011 as it sold out eight consecutive games and fans bought a record 21,155 season tickets so they could secure seats at the new stadium, which can be expanded to 40,000 seats. The Bombers also drew those fans with an on-field performance in 2011 that included capturing the East Division with a 10-8 record and going to the Grey Cup, where they lost to the B.C. Lions. Buchko is hoping the team can rebound from missing the playoffs last season with a 6-12 record, because if they dont it could cost the club in the pocketbook again. While another record 22,050 season-ticket sales helped boost 2012 revenue to $6.48 million -- the highhest since 2010 -- the game-day, walk-up revenue dropped $767,506 from 2011 and the team averaged 28,013 fans with four sellouts.dddddddddddd Buchko said three things had a hand in that decrease. "Firstly, our record," he said. "We were all disappointed with our record in 2012 and look forward to reversing those fortunes this season. "Secondly, the weather. We had three games with monsoon rains prior and during our games, therefore walk-up sales for these games suffered. "And thirdly, our fans, as we were, were disappointed that we didnt open and play in Investors Group Field in 2012." There were two pieces of good news announced Tuesday. Season-ticket sales for this year have already reached a new record of 23,000. The club also revealed it was adding a 13th member to the board of directors and changing the way those directors are chosen by launching a public nomination process. There will also be retirement dates for existing members. "While the board has always filled new positions with qualified, skilled and experienced individuals, this public process will ensure that all future qualified candidates are identified using openness and transparency," new Bombers board chairman Brock Bulbuck said. Bulbuck, president and CEO of the Boyd Group Income Fund, takes over from Bill Watchorn, whose three-year term has ended. The Bombers have $10.17 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $6.8 million in 2012 -- an amount the ever-optimistic Buchko said was a silver lining to last years bad-news bottom line. "The Winnipeg Football Clubs balance sheet is in very good shape, even considering the additional stadium development costs and additional investment in Investors Group Field for fans and revenue-generating enhancements" Buchko said. The team took out an extra $10-million loan last year to improve concessions, add video ribbon boards and upgrade seating and some suites instead of waiting to do it down the road. "We will be playing on the greatest football stage in Canada," Buchko boasted. "And, simply said, no other football facility in this country competes with ours." cheap nfl jerseys ' ' '
