Despite a multipoint game, Boston Bruins fans were left disappointed with David Pastrnak's repetitive, deprived shootout attempt in a 4-3 loss to the Seattle Kraken on Monday night.
Pastrnak was one of the three shooters for the Bruins in the shootout. As usual, he took his time skating towards the opposing net. However, the effort, which has become somewhat of a trend in shootouts lately, didn't meet expectations of fans.
David Pastrnak went for a wrist shot, but Seattle's goalie, Philipp Grubauer, made it look like a routine save.

Grubauer also denied Charlie McAvoy and Charlie Coyle in their previous attempts, handing the Bruins their 14th loss of the season, coming after regulation.
One fan reacted to Pastrnak's shootout attempt, tweeting:
"Pastrnak keeps using the worst shootout move in nhl history. Embarrassing to watch"
Another chimed in:
"Pastrnak might be the worst shootout player I’ve ever seen"
Here are some of the other top reactions on X:
