2. David Pastrnak keeps missing

This hasn’t been the best series for David Pastrnak. He has made multiple mistakes and has looked awful on the ice.

Game 4 was a rollercoaster for Pasta. He started off great he scored a goal from his patented location near the faceoff circle to give the Bruins a 1-0 lead early on in the 1st period.

After that Pastrnak continued to struggle. On the power play he was once again awful. He gave up the puck multiple times and if it wasn’t for Tuukka Rask would have been the main reason the Bruins lost.

Even though I am glad to see Pastrnak score he needs to play a complete 60 minutes. If he continues to struggle like this you may have to consider taking Pastrnak off of the power play unit.

So hopefully we will see David Pastrnak improve in Game 5 or the Bruins will have some tough decisions to make.
