"He's been a longtime Bruin, so I'm pretty sure it's gonna be special and hard at the same time for him, but for us, we have other stuff to worry about. So, it will definitely be good to see him back, but at the same time, we have to maintain our focus." Pastrnak then made it clear that he expects Marchand to chirp him and his Bruins teammates in their contest. "He's for sure going to be all over. He's going to run his mouth," Pastrnak said with a smile [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/latest-news/bruins-david-pastrnak-opens-up-about-brad-marchand-s-return]. "I can't wait for the matchup. It will be really fun, and maybe he will be too nice. We will see." Pastrnak and Marchand are both off to solid starts offensively. Marchand has notched three goals and six points in seven games and Pastrnak has recorded four goals and eight points in seven games.
