If anyone thought the Bruins were going to mail it in for the final seven games since clinching the Presidents’ Trophy, they are sadly mistaken.
With the Pittsburgh Penguins desperately trying to hold onto the final playoff spot and a date with the Bruins in the first round, David Pastrnak posted his second hat trick of the year in dramatic fashion and beat the Pens, 4-3, at PPG Pains Arena on Saturday. It was win No. 59 for the Bruins.
Pastrnak notched his third goal of the game and 56th of the season when he ripped home a David Krejci feed to give the Bruins a 4-3 lead.
