Bruins' David Pastrnak: Three points in season opener
Rotowire
Pastrnak recorded a goal and two assists, including one on the power play, in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Capitals.
Pastrnak broke the deadlock for the Bruins midway through the first period with a snap shot, and he would come through in the final frame as well with a pair of helpers. Pastrnak played through tendinitis in his knee last season but still posted an impressive campaign with 43 goals and 106 points across 82 regular-season appearances. If he stays healthy, he should operate as the Bruins' go-to weapon on offense once again.

Bruins' David Pastrnak: Injury considered minor
Rotowire
Head coach Marco Sturm said that Pastrnak's tendinitis is in his knee and that the 29-year-old could have skated Thursday, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports.

Bruins' David Pastrnak: Dealing with tendinitis
Rotowire
Pastrnak won't be a full participant in practices for the first few days of training camp due to tendinitis, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports Wednesday.
General manager Don Sweeney described the decision to hold Pastrnak back in early practices as "load management," so it doesn't sound like this is a serious issue. It's something worth monitoring, but it also makes sense if the Bruins are simply using an abundance of caution when it comes to the handling of their superstar forward during training camp. Pastrnak finished the 2024-25 campaign with 43 goals and 106 points across 82 appearances. He hasn't missed a regular-season game over the past three years.

Bruins' David Pastrnak: Serves two apples in win
Rotowire
Pastrnak dished two assists and put three shots on net in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.
Pastrnak's playmaking was clicking on all cylinders in Sunday's game with primary helpers on goals scored by Elias Lindholm and Morgan Geekie. Overall, the 28-year-old Pastrnak is up to 62 assists, 104 points and 318 shots on net in 81 games this season. Boston's superstar currently ranks 4th in the league in points and second in shots on goal, trailing Colorado's Nathan MacKinnon (undisclosed) by two shots. Pastrnak has helped raise the play of his linemates this season and was one of the factors behind Morgan Geekie's development as a goal scorer this season. As the Bruins have a vacancy at captain with the departure of Brad Marchand at the trade deadline, Pastrnak's ability and leadership qualities make him a solid option for the captaincy for years to come. There is a lot to like about Pastrnak's production heading into the 2025-26 season.
