Toronto fans displayed a lack of respect towards David Pastrnak
David Pastrnak enjoyed interacting with fans of the Toronto Maple Leafs during the 2024 NHL All-Star Skills Competition. As he made his entrance on Friday night at Scotiabank Place, a chorus of boos greeted him.
Undeterred, he glided to the lineup of players with a smile and affectionately kissed the Spoked B emblem on his black Bruins jersey, celebrating the team's centenary.
Regrettably, the Bruins' standout winger didn't achieve much success in the NHL All-Star Skills competition, failing to advance to the final rounds for a chance at the $1 million prize. Nonetheless, fans of the Boston Bruins should take pride in his participation and his spirited engagement with the supporters of their historic Original 6 and Atlantic Division adversaries.
Pastrnak is set to compete for Team McDavid in the NHL All-Star Game come Saturday. The 27-year-old winger concluded the first half of the season ranked third in the NHL for points (72) and goals (33), and placed tenth for assists (39). As a 2023 Hart Trophy Finalist, Pastrnak outpaces McDavid in points (67) and goals (20), although he trails the current Hart Trophy holder by eight assists, with McDavid recording 47 assists.
In Saturday's game, Pastrnak and Team McDavid will go head to head with Bruins' goalie Jeremy Swayman and Team Mackinnon.
