BOSTON -- Anton Khudobin became the latest Boston Bruins goaltender to get injured Monday.Khudobin skated over to the Bruins bench at Warrior Ice Arena just before practice and had his right arm or wrist attended to by the training staff. The goaltender then left the ice and didnt return.The Bruins were already without Tuukka Rask, who has been out since Oct. 20 against the New Jersey Devils because of an undisclosed injury.Heading into their home game against the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday, the Bruins (3-2-0) dont know who will be their starting goaltender.This is hockey, Bruins coach Claude Julien. We deal on a day-to-day basis with injuries. You wait for the news and you go about doing your job as its required. If we have to make some adjustments and we have to have different personnel, well deal with it when we have more of an update. But right now I have nothing.Julien had no immediate update on Khudobin and the coach said Rask is still day to day.Malcolm Subban, the Bruins first-round pick (24th overall) in 2012, was recalled from Providence of the American Hockey League on Monday to fill in for Rask.Subban, the younger brother of Nashville Predators All-Star defenseman P.K. Subban, then became the lone goaltender for the hour-long practice.Rask started the Bruins season opener Oct. 13. He then missed the next game two nigghts later because of injury, but he was able to dress as Khudobins backup.ddddddddddddRask returned to play the next two games, but hasnt skated since he beat the Devils 2-1. Rask is 3-0-0 with a .947 save percentage and 1.67 goals-against average.Khudobin is 0-2-0 with a .849 save percentage and 4.10 GAA.Subbans emergency call-up couldnt have come at a worse time for the 22-year-old. In four games for Providence, he has a .846 save percentage and 4.50 GAA and he has been pulled twice. He allowed four goals on 34 shots in an overtime loss to Albany on Sunday.Obviously not the way you want to start the season, Subban said. To be honest last game I felt a lot better. ... I feel like Im battling. Its not the first time Ive faced adversity, its not going to be the last. I dont feel too down on myself right now, to be honest.Subbans only previous NHL experience was a start to forget on Feb. 20, 2015, on the road against the St. Louis Blues.He was pulled one minute into the second period after allowing three goals on six shots.With the Bruins needing to bounce back from their 4-2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday, Subban might get another chance.If I get the call, Ill be ready to go, Subban said.
