David Pastrnak led the Bruins to a 3-1 win over the Ottawa Senators on Monday afternoon, and in the process, joined an elite list in franchise history.
With his 40th - and 41st - goal of the season, Pasta became just the fifth player in Bruins history to score 40 goals in at least three consecutive seasons.
Pastrnak improved to 41 goals on the season and trails Connor McDavid by one for the league lead in that category.
He also jumped up to a tie for fourth in points with Matthew Tkachuk at 78. But nobody's catching McDavid there, who is 20 ahead of second place with 102 points on the season.
Now sign Pasta to a max extension!
