When Boston Bruins rookie forward David Pastrnak scored his second goal on Saturday afternoon, he became the first 18-year-old forward to record a multi-goal game in NHL play in over a decade, according to NHL PR.
The last 18-year-old who managed the feat? Pastrnak's teammate Patrice Bergeron way back in 2004. If the rest of Pastrnak's career goes the same way Bergeron's has, presumably the Bruins will take it (or trade Pastrnak for cents on the dollar, because he's a top-line quality offensive player - who knows?!).
Here's Pastrnak's milestone tally:
