With a 6-1 Game 2 win for the Florida Panthers already decided, Boston Bruins alternate captain David Pastrnak decided that he had had enough of Panthers alternate captain Matthew Tkachuk running roughshod on him and his teammates.
With the Florida Panthers up 6-1, 12:42 into the third period and numerous fisticuffs and shenanigans already happening, Pastrnak challenged Tkachuk. After some chirping from their respective benches, both star wingers jumped over the boards for the next shift, and it was on.
The Bruins’ superstar winger lost, but he deserves full credit for standing up to the Panthers’ agitator. Anyone who has labeled Pastrnak as ‘soft’ needs some mustard for their crow this morning.
The ESPN cameras caught David Pastrnak looking up at Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery on the bench before he went out on the ice again and challenged Tkachuk to a fight.
