David Pastrnak struggled to begin the 2021-22 NHL season but that seems to be a thing of the past.
The Bruins winger potted two goals in Boston’s 5-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights on Thursday night at T-Mobile Arena.
Pastrnak now has 31 goals on the season, marking the fifth time he’s hit the 30-goal mark in his career. That puts him among pretty elite company in Bruins history.
Rick Middleton and Phil Esposito are tied with a franchise-high eight 30-goal seasons. Johnny Bucyk, Patrice Bergeron and Cam Neely also are on the list.
Check out all of them below:
Pastrnak can continue to add to that total Saturday night when the Bruins wrap up their road trip against the Columbus Blue Jackets at 7:30 p.m. ET.
