Malcolm Subban's season debut did not go as planned.
The Boston Bruins' rookie goalie was pulled during the second period of Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Wild after allowing three goals on 16 shots for a save percentage of .813.
After beginning the season in Providence, Subban was pressed into action following injuries to starter Tuukka Rask and backup Anton Khudobin. He was replaced by fourth-string option Zany McIntyre on Tuesday.
The 2012 first-round pick (24th overall) previously appeared in one NHL game, against St. Louis on Feb. 20, 2015. Subban was also pulled from that start, after allowing three goals on six shots.
