David Pastrnak expressed his desire to remain in Boston

David Pastrnak arrived in Boston in the fall of 2014 as a shy 18-year-old kid. Over time, the dynamic Czech playmaker matured into one of the elite goal scorers in the National Hockey League.

Pastrnak developed into a bonafide sniper and became a threat to light the lamp every time he touched the puck during his eight-year tenure. His patented one-timer from the faceoff dot became his go-to weapon, yet Pastrnak showcased more variety with his scoring touch, from the occasional greasy goal to scoring off the rush with the likes of David Krejci, Patrice Bergeron, Taylor Hall and Brad Marchand (to name a few) flanking him.
