What better way to conclude this extraordinary season for David Pastrnak than by achieving something last accomplished by Wayne Gretzky in 1987?
In fact, both Pastrnak and Connor McDavid have the potential to be the first players since Gretzky to reach an impressive milestone. The two players have something in common this season.
Connor McDavid and David Pastrnak will both attempt to do something last accomplished by Wayne Gretzky: Score 60 goals in the regular season and win the #StanleyCup in the same year.
This remarkable achievement has been accomplished 10 times by six different players, with both Gretzky and Mike Bossy achieving it three times each.
Phil Esposito was the only other Bruins player to do so, back in the 1971-72 season when he scored 66 regular-season goals and contributed nine more on the way to the Stanley Cup.
Pasta and McDavid have strong chances of being the next superstars to lift the Cup, as both the Bruins and Oilers are top contenders in their respective conferences.
