Tim Thomas First Goalie Off Ice at Bruins Morning Skate

Bruins head coach Claude Julien appears to be sticking with the veteran.

According to NESN's Naoko Funayama, B's netminder Tim Thomas was the first off the ice at morning skate at Montreal's Bell Centre, indicating he'll likely be between the pipes on Monday night against the Canadiens.

Thomas has allowed five goals in the first two quarterfinal matchups thus far, kicking aside 41 of 46 shots he's faced. He's 10-14 with a 3.05 GAA against the Habs in his career while backup Tuukka Rask is just 1-5 with a 2.72 GAA. Rask hasn't played since the B's lost to the Devils 3-2 on April 10.
