1. David Pastrnak

This postseason was a postseason from hell for David Pastrnak. He struggled immensely throughout the postseason.

Pastrnak’s struggles were stunning because he performed so well in the regular season. He was scoring goals left and right. He lead the entire Bruins roster with 38 goals.

Then in the playoffs it was like Pastrnak was a complete different person. He was constantly turning the puck over and was struggling to get quality scoring opportunities.

The most frustrating thing was how Pastrnak would just lose control of the puck when it was on his stick. That is something that a 5-year-old does, not an NHL player.

Pastrnak finished the postseason with 9 goals and 10 assists, but was non-existent in the Stanley Cup Finals. He only had 2 goals and 2 assists and finished with a dreadful rating of -7.

Hopefully the next time that the Boston Bruins make the playoffs David Pastrnak will have a much better impact on his team.
