In case anyone needs an example of that myth being busted, David Pastrnak is living proof.
Sure, Pastrnak had some issues during the first two years of his career be it injuries or losing pucks to turnovers. Still, the 2014 first round pick showed glimpses of promise and showcased his potential in the first 97 games of his National Hockey League career.
Enter year three. Now at 20 years of age, things are coming full circle for Pastrnak. He’s on the top line with Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron. He’s becoming more responsible with his puck and not dwelling on past mistakes.
