David Pastrnak topped off an outstanding season with 60 goals, and he attributed his milestone to the advice of long-time teammate Brad Marchand.

Targeting 60 Goals from the Start

Pasta reached this remarkable milestone in Philadelphia on Sunday, where his third hat trick of the season contributed to the Bruins' 5-3 victory over the Flyers.

Pastrnak revealed that scoring 60 goals this season was not entirely coincidental, as he credited the achievement to valuable advice from the experienced Marchand.

''There's one great point that actually [Marchand] told me like many, many years ago when I was young. He said, �You always have to aim 10 goals higher than you think you can get.' �'

�'So, yeah, definitely I was aiming at 60. Wasn't really thinking that I will get there. Definitely special. It's one of many advice you get from the leaders like these guys that can help you moving forward.''


The Czech winger is enjoying an MVP-worthy season with Boston, achieving new career highs in goals (60), assists (49), and points (109). Pastrnak also leads the league with 396 shots.

With only two games left in the Bruins' regular season, Pasta is just three points away from achieving the highest single-season points in the past 30 years, a record currently held by Adam Oates with 112 points in the 1993-94 season.
