David Pastrnak is on a roll this season
David Pastrnak began his professional journey in 2014 and has been with the Boston Bruins ever since. The 26-year-old has played over 566 games and has netted 281 goals in this period.
In his ninth season as a Bruins player, he has already scored over 41 goals and has 36 assists. With his current form, Pastrnak is likely to surpass his previous goal record (48 goals in the 2019-20 season).
The Boston Bruins' season so far
The Boston Bruins have played exceptionally well and are first in the Atlantic Division with 93 points.
The Bruins have one of the league's strongest and most consistent offensive units. They are also among the few teams to have scored over 200 goals this season. David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand have been key to their fortunes.
Moreover, their defense is the best in the league and has allowed just two goals per game this season, with all the goaltenders conceding fewer than three goals on average per game. The defenders have done their part in the team's success and look settled as a unit.
The focus now shifts to the game against the Vancouver Canucks. With a day's rest and a five-game winning streak in tow, the Bruins will fancy their chances going into the game.
