"Just doesn't give a sh** in shootouts": Bruins fans blast David Pastrnak's SO attempt in loss to Lightning in Brad Marchand's 1,000th NHL game

David Pastrnak's shootout attempt didn't go the way Boston Bruins fans had hoped after a 3-2 shootout loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday, with many fans criticizing the forward for his lack of effort.

The Lightning got off to a strong start and were up 2-0 until the second period. However, goals from Charlie McAvoy and James van Riemsdyk helped the Bruins recover from a two-goal deficit.

The game also marked the 1,000th NHL career game for captain Brad Marchand, who notched up two assists on the night to take his tally to 912 career points, the fifth most in Boston Bruins franchise history.

Following the goalless third period and overtime, the game moved into the shootout. Andrei Vasileviskiy stood solid between the pipes and denied Jake DeBrusk, Charlie Coyle and David Pastrnak to get past him.

Brayden Point was the lone scorer in the shootout, whose goal clinched the win for the Bolts. Meanwhile, Pastrnak was the final Bruins player to take a shot in the shootout. The 27-year-old attempted a wrist shot, but Vasilevskiy blocked it.

Boston Bruins fans appeared to be uninspired by David Pastrnak's lack of effort as they tweeted their reactions on X, formerly Twitter. One tweeted:
