Sweeney emphasizes the need for the team's second-tier leaders to rise alongside established figures like Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, and Brad Marchand, drawing inspiration from the 2010-2011 season when new leaders emerged after a heartbreaking loss.
Sweeney believes that the current core of leaders, including Pastrnak, can use the disappointment of their recent playoff exit as motivation for growth.
Despite facing criticism, Pastrnak is seen as the catalyst for this charge. Sweeney affirms Pastrnak's commitment to Boston and his eagerness to embrace leadership, positioning him alongside Marchand, Coyle, Zacha, Lindholm, McAvoy, and the goaltenders as the next core of leaders.
With Pastrnak at the helm, the Bruins aim to navigate this transition and create a successful future, learning from their recent playoff disappointment.
