After yesterday's game, he's now #1 in points from the 2014 draft. 212 vs Draisaitl's 210. Ehlers is 3rd at 162.
I think he's easily the best player from that draft - wouldn't even consider a one-for-one for Draisaitl. Amazing player, but he doesn't bring that "dangerous" element on the ice like Pasta.

Random irrelevant fact:
Pastrnak has recored 26+31 for 57 points in his last 41 games. Over a full season that would translate to 110+ points and 50+ goals.

On more serious note, Pastrnak looks incredible out there. How much better can he actually get?

That’s incredible..he just keeps getting better and better. Gotta think he gets at least 40 goals this year and finishes top 10 in scoring. Slowly getting himself into the same conversation as Matthews

The scary thing with Pasta is you see him getting better year after year. From where he was his rookie year to now is night and day. Hopefully sum that can be a reminder to let some of these young guys develop. Will they all be a Pasta? no, but even an elite player like Pasta need a few seasons to really get thing figured out.

I remember yelling for Barbashev draft day, wanted the B's to pick up a center. Boy was I wrong. Pasta is such a stud.

Yeah I think so too. A year ago it might of been a debate, but not now.

The list of forwards in the league I would trade Pastrnak for straight-up one-for-one is awfully small, you can probably count them on one hand.

He's so dynamic and exciting to watch. I've noticed that he looks a lot stronger on the puck now as well. His first few seasons he was getting knocked around quite a bit, but so far this year he looks a lot stronger on his skates.

Pasta is a beast. All you can do is laugh at the stuff he does, even when it doesn't work out. I'd take him over Mathews right now all day, every day.

No doubt Pasta goes #1 in a 2014 redraft.

There was a Rumor back then that the Habs had him very high on their list. But when the Bruins choked in round 2 against them, they ended up moving down to #26 because they were in the ECF and Bruins up to #25 from their #30 President Cup position. Bruins took Pasta and Habs Sherbak next. :laugh:

Having Pasta for years makes me get over the fact that the Bruins blew a great chance at the Cup in 2014 when they lost to the lowly Habs after dominating the NHL in every categories all year and having a 3-2 lead in the series...

There is no comparison to me in the better player Draisaitl or Pastrnak.

Pastrnak with McDavid would be spectacular.

I'm just glad the PBM line knocked the stupid "10 points in 4 games!! We are winning the Cup" Laffs threads off the front page of the main board.

Leafs finally get talent and 90% of their threads are Cap related.

Going to enjoy 4 Forwards making 40 M of an $80 M cap when all is said and done

Wish NHL.com would have at least put Bergeron or Pasta's picture in the stats page. They are tied and the first time a new person is at the top but they keep the poster boy Matthews with his flaring nostrils and endless forehead in the headline. Other way around you could beat Frankenstein head would have been on one or both.

That’s ok, they’ll be ahead of him by the weekend.
