Great Pastrňák’s performance. The fast broke three goals into the Tampa net

Although Tampa Bay took the lead in Boston in the 28th minute thanks to the goal of Brandon Hagel in the weakening, which was passed by Ondřej Palát, Pastrňák equalized only a moment later after a escape with a backhand.

Steven Stamkos returned the guests to the guests at the beginning of the third act, but the Czech striker leveled again in the 49th minute with a backhand from the turn. Hattrick Pastrňák completed four minutes before the end. This year he has 36 goals, which puts him in the sixth place in the table of shooters.

“Defeating such a great team as Tampa Bay will kick and boost your confidence. It’s a valuable prize. We deserved it, we were better,” said Pastrnak, declared the first star of the match. Boston jumped Tampa Bay in the Atlantic Division, which has as many points (85) as the second Toronto. Only Florida (90) is ahead of them. “We have been chasing the three teams for some time. There are still a lot of matches left and our main goal is to keep improving,” he added.

Erik Haula passed to Pastrňák for all three goals. “The last matches are great,” said the Czech hockey player about his teammate, emphasizing the change in the attack. “Sometimes I felt a little lost. We discussed the fact that we were far apart forging. It was great today. We were able to spend more time in the offensive zone and therefore created more opportunities to score.”

The Havířov native scored three goals in the match for the second time of the season, the first time he succeeded in mid-January against Philadelphia. He has scored a hat-trick twelve times in his career in the NHL. Since joining the NHL in the 2014/15 season, only Alexandr Ovechkin (15) has experienced more three-goal evenings. In club history, Pastrňák is in third place in the number of hat tricks behind Cam Neely (14) and Phil Esposit (26).

After Hertl’s pass, Erik Karlsson finished in an empty goal and opened the score at the beginning of the second period. But Edmonton turned quickly and in the 47th minute Derick Brassard increased the lead to 3: 1.

29 seconds later, Hertl swung the 26th goal of the season with a swing from the ring and dramatized the match, but no one from San Jose followed. Leon Draisaitl, who is the second best scorer with 44 goals, took part in the Oilers’ win with two goals. Auston Matthews of Toronto has two more hits.

Of the Czech players, Filip Hronek and Jakub Vrána also scored on Thursday. Hronek entered the statistics at 4: 0, when Pius Suter ran his shot. The score last changed in the match after the action of the Crows, after whose pass Sam Gagner prevailed in the power play. Filip Zadina was missing from the Red Wings group due to illness.

Former Philadelphia captain Claude Giroux introduced himself in his new job with two assists to help Florida win 4: 3 in Montreal. The first match since the exchange also included goalkeeper Scott Wedgewood. He destroyed 44 shots, including four attempts by Martin Nečas, did not collect from three raids in the shootout and led Dallas to a 4: 3 victory on Carolina’s ice.

In the first match after the annulled exchange to Anaheim, the Russian striker Yevgeny Dadonov shone in the Vegas jersey with three points (1 + 2) in a 6: 1 victory over Nashville. On the side of the losers, David Rittich played the role of a substitute goalkeeper.

Dominik Kubalík, who scored only five points (1 + 4) in the last 21 matches, was missing from the Chicago squad. The Blackhawks, even without him, won Los Angeles 4: 3 after the raids.
