Pastrňák becomes second-highest-scoring Czech player in NHL history
David Pastrňák has become the second-highest-scoring Czech player in NHL history after Tuesday’s game in Seattle. The Boston Bruins forward scored twice and, although it was not enough to prevent a 7–4 defeat, it lifted his career tally to 410 goals. Pastrňák thereby moved past Patrik Eliáš, who ended his NHL career with 408 goals.
Pastrňák now trails only Czech hockey legend Jaromír Jágr, who scored 766 goals and sits fourth on the NHL’s all-time scoring list. However, the 29-year-old Havířov native may yet overtake Jágr, too.
