The Boston Bruins continue to have one of the best goalie tandem in the league with Tuukka Rask and Jaroslav Halak.�

What makes it even better is that they have two solid goalies waiting in the wings with Dan Vladar and Jeremy Swayman looking fantastic in Providence.�

While the youngsters look good, they'll likely need another year or two of seasoning in the AHL before making the jump to the NHL.�

That means that maybe Halak and more than likely Rask will be brought back next season.�

So what could a contract extension for Rask look like?

Rask won't get a long term extension like last time but he's continuing to put up great numbers so we can't expect him to take too much of a pay cut.�

That's why�Ty Anderson of 98.5�The Hub believes Rask will likely get a 2-3 year deal worth around $6.5million a year.�

The Bruins are likely up against the cap once again next year but they will need Rask around to continue making a push.�

Would you be willing to hand Rask this type of deal?
