5. A Lot of people assumed that Rask would end up on Santa’s Naughty List. It sure looked like he was on Coach Peter’s Naughty List. Last Season He wore an “A” along with Skinny, Faulk, and Stall. While Skinny Got to keep his “A” this season, Faulk and Stall get to share a “C”. Rask got… nothing. To top it off he was a healthy scratch for a few games while he was instructed to reset and focus. It payed off and Rask delivered in crucial games at home against Toronto and Nashville. Santa has noticed all this and expects Rask to keep it up in the face of all that adversary. He has earned his spot on the Nice List.. C. Carolina Hurricanes. VICTOR RASK
