3 takeaways as Tuukka Rask’s return and David Pastrnak’s hat trick lift Bruins to 4th straight win

Back in black (and gold).

Tuukka Rask, the Bruins’ all-time leader in goalie wins, grabbed his first victory of the 2021-22 season following the team’s 3-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers at TD Garden.

Making his return to the net for the first time since June 9, Rask registered 25 saves, while David Pastrnak powered the offense with his first hat trick of the year as Boston claimed its fourth win in a row.

They started strong, withstood a surge, and responded.

Pastrnak put the Bruins ahead less than two minutes into the game with a wicked wrister, then he tucked in his second of the night on a power-play strike shortly after to make it 2-0 Boston.
