WATCH: Brad Marchand helps David Pastrnak score on another epic assist

Share

In Saturday's victory over the Detroit Red Wings, David Pastrnak picked up his 42nd goal of the 2019-20 NHL season. He netted the goal off an assist from his linemate Brad Marchand.

And man, was it a beautiful one.

On the play, the Bruins had a two-on-two going down the ice, but Marchand was able to get around the Red Wings defender marking him to stretch the defense. By doing that, Marchand created a quick two-on-one and dished the puck to Pastrnak who got the score.

Here's a look at the play via the NHL's official Twitter account.

And here's another closer look to see Marchand's nifty stick work on the play.

What. A. Play. It's one that elicited cheers from Bruins fans at the TD Garden and is yet another showcase of why the Marchand-Pastrnak-Patrice Bergeron combination is one of the best in the NHL.

It's also the second time in as many games that Marchand has made an unreal pass to set up Pastrnak for a goal. The first came on Wednesday against the Montreal Canadiens, and you can click here to see that goal.

Marchand will look to continue to stay hot on Sunday afternoon at 3:30 when the Bruins take on the New York Rangers. He has logged four assists in his past two games and has cracked the 70-point mark for the fourth consecutive season as a result.
