Pastrnak reveals what could keep him in Boston long-term
David Pastrnak has been the subject of contract-extension rumors, as well as trade rumors over the past year or so, and with good reason. The elite winger has showcased his ability to be a vital piece on a contending team. The Boston Bruins have been a long-time perennial contender for the Stanley Cup, but it appears that window is closing.
It seems that Pastrnak hasn't made his decision to sign a contract-extension in Boston for a couple reasons. He likely wants to know if the Bruins would still have a chance to win the Cup even after Bergeron and Krejci retire. The forward's ultimate goal is the Stanley Cup, and it appears that he would consider a pay-cut in order to get one.
Of course, it wouldn't be much of a pay-cut, as he is likely looking at a similar contract to Johnny Gaudreau's or Jonathan Huberdeau's. He wants to stay in Boston, but if the Cup window appears to be closing, he will be finding a team to chase one with in the soon future.
It looks like he wants to know if the Bruins still will have a chance to win the Stanley Cup in those next years when Bergeron and Krejci retire. He wants a Stanley Cup so bad. It's his goal. Andy & Rono (@ARHockeyStats) August 23, 2022
