Boston Bruins star David Pastrnak discussed being benched.
Boston Bruins superstar David Pastrnak was benched for the entire third period in their Sunday (Nov. 4) win against the Seattle Kraken. With Pastrnak being the team's best player, this was major news.
Naturally, Pastrnak was asked by reporters about being benched following his careless turnover. Here is what No. 88 said on the matter:
"That was a bad turnover, so I take responsibility for it... And you know, I just want to move forward. I don't want to be any distraction to our team. The guys know how I feel about them here. It's a bad play. I take accountability and already moving forward."
This was a good response from Pastrnak. He will now aim to bounce back from his rough performance against the Kraken by putting together a strong night against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday (Nov. 5).
Pastrnak has six goals, 11 points, and a minus-4 rating in 13 games this season with the Bruins.
