Tuukka Rask guests on drums for local Buffalo band (Video)
by Josh Cooper
What do Tuukka Rask of the Boston Bruins and Animal from The Muppets have in common? Not much really, besides dominant abilities on the drums.
This comes from the Buffalo News:
On the eve of the Bruins' eventual 4-0 stomping of the Sabres -- in which Rask sat in favor of backup Niklas Svedberg -- the 2013-14 Vezina Trophy winner and a few other teammates dropped by the Allentown live-music venue to check out a show, said The Good Neighborhood founder Seamus Gallivan.
Rask quietly asked local band the Mustn'ts if he could step in as the drummer for the band's song, a cover of Phish's "Back on the Train," …
Rask’s style looks a little more chill than Animal’s, but who doesn’t love an athlete who shows his musical side, especially during the season. Plus, he probably needed to hit the drums to chill out a little after a start that saw him with a 2.89 goals against average and .870 save percentage.
Hey, remember that time when Henrik Lundqvist jammed with tennis legend John McEnroe? Yeah, that was cool.
