David Pastrnak of Havirov, Czech Republic recorded his 21st National Hockey League career hat trick on Saturday. He accomplished the feat in a 5-1 Boston Bruins upset win over the Carolina Hurricanes at the Toronto Dominion Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. Ironically, the three goal game and dominant Bruins performance came only one day after we documented the Bruins’s massive struggles this season. Not many expected the Bruins to beat the Hurricanes when you consider the fact that the Bruins are 27 points back of Carolina and the fact that Boston had a 10 game losing streak before beating the Hurricanes.
