Boston Bruins: 3 takeaways from terrific win over Toronto
By Sam Minton
2. David Pastrnak is winning the Hart
It may be early but David Pastrnak is having an amazing season. Pasta had one of his best games of the season on Saturday night.
Pastrnak secured his first hat trick of the season. He continues to light the lamp at an epic rate this year. So far he has 15 goals which puts him at the top of the NHL.
I think this is the year that Pastrnak breaks out. It doesn’t look like he will stop scoring goals anytime soon. He just has such a great shot that makes it almost impossible for goaltenders to stop him. When you add in his sick hands there’s not a lot defense’s can do to Pastrnak.
Pastrnak is a very early candidate for the Hart Trophy. If he continues to score at this rate he is almost a lock for the award. Hopefully, that won’t be the only hardware, Pastrnak gets this season.
