He had a hand in Boston's first three goals in the back-and-forth affair, but Pastrnak came up short in the shootout. The 28-year-old superstar has reeled off three straight three-point performances, and since the calendar flipped to 2025 he's erupted for eight goals and 14 points in the last eight contests.

Since entering 2025 David Pastrnak has 11 points, seven goals, four assists in seven games.
