It's no secret, David Pastrnak is the most gifted sniper on the Boston Bruins roster.
Still just 26 years old, Pastrnak has already set the mark last season for most hat tricks by a Bruins player at age 25 or younger, when he recorded the 12th of his career.
The only two other active skaters that have scored 10 or more hat tricks before turning 26 are Connor McDavid (10) and Alexander Ovechkin (10). Placing Pastrnak's name above those two is quite the honor.
The Czech-born is also quickly climbing the Bruins history books as well. His most recent three-goal outing tied Bruins legend Johnny Bucyk for third all-time for most hat tricks in franchise history.
Pasta's natural ability to find the back of the net gives him a legitimate chance at catching Cam Neely on the all-time list, but he's still very far from beating Phil Esposito's franchise mark.
