In a far-from-shocking development, Bruins winger David Pastrnak is heading back to the All-Star Game.
The NHL announced Pastrnak as one of the first 32 selections — one player from each team — for the upcoming 2024 All-Star Weekend on Thursday. The three-day event will be held in Toronto from Feb. 1-3.
This marks the fourth time that Pastrnak has been named an All-Star, previously earning the nod in 2019, 2020, and 2023.
As expected, Pastrnak has been Boston’s primary offensive conduit so far this season. In 37 games with Boston, Pastrnak has scored 23 goals and posted 53 total points.
