Over the past 16 games, the Boston Bruins have had a lot on their plate. That said, it’s hard to be overwhelmed with having too much on your plate when all you do is eat. The B’s have earned at least a point in the standings in each of those games, now boasting a 12-0-4 record throughout that span. Boston has even gone an impressive 8-0-1 without leading goal-scorer David Pastrnak, who injured his left thumb after being tripped up by Jack Daniels on the night of February 10th.
The injury to “Pasta” was supposed to be a detriment to the red-hot Black and Gold, but has instead served as an opportunity for others to step up in the 31-goal-scorer’s absence.
