Bruins coach Jim Montgomery slams David Pastrnak after Game 6 loss
After that tough 2-1 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs in Game 6, Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery didn't hold back when talking about star forward David Pastrnak.
Your best players need to be your best players this time of year. Pasta has to step up. He needs to be a dominant player like he used to.
Pastrnak had an amazing regular season, with 47 goals and 110 points in 82 games. Yet he's struggled with two goals and four points in six games. He hasn't done the Bruins any favors here.
Then there's Boston captain Brad Marchand might not have scored in the last two games either, but he has three goals and five assists this series.
The Bruins have let the Leafs claw their way back, setting up Game 7 at TD Garden on Saturday. If they lose, they'll become the first team in MLB/NBA/NHL history to blow a lead in consecutive seasons. Yet Marchand, who's been a part of three Boston wins over Toronto in game 7's, is ready for it.
These are the moments you dream about as a kid. Game 7. That's where heroes are built and made.
So, get ready. Saturday's Game 7 is shaping up to be one for the ages, and we're in for a wild ride!
