BHN Puck Links: Boston Bruins’ Pastrnak ‘Pasta Pasta’ On Sale

I don’t know if this is a reflection on the season for the Boston Bruins or B’s fans trying to cut out the carbs, but David Pastrnak’s pasta has gone on clearance at Stop & Shop. That’s right the “Pasta pasta” that was 88 cents in honor of No. 88 with a portion of the profits going to the Jimmy Fund has now been dropped to a very un-Pastrnak 79 cents.

You know Pasta’s having a rough season when they mark down his 88-cent … pasta. #NHLBruins pic.twitter.com/3nOt3EXEHL

What is going on? This isn’t “Lauzon pasta” is it?

Anyway, let us know when the price drops to 63 cents because somebody tells me that Brad Marchand will have a field day with that chirping his longtime Boston Bruins linemate. It’s still a great idea for a stocking stuffer a few days ahead of the Christmas holiday.

Now on to the BHN Puck Links:

*The Boston Bruins are absolutely one of the NHL teams that should be “all in” for Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun if he becomes available. (Boston Hockey Now)

*Cool moments for Vegas goalie Robin Lehner as he was honored in his return to the New York Islanders. (Vegas Hockey Now)

*Alex Ovechkin is among the fan vote leaders for the 2022 NHL All-Star game and rightfully so for the season that he’s been heaving. (Washington Hockey Now)

*Yup, the Montreal Canadiens are on pause until after the Christmas holiday now too. (Montreal Hockey Now)

*Well done, New York Islanders. Who knew Happy Hogan was such a big Isles fan?

Anyone see the #isles jersey in the new @SpiderMan movie?! 🕷️🕸️

Cause we did. 👀

*Ryan O’Reilly certainly isn’t alone among the NHL’s rank-and-file wondering whether players should only be tested if they are showing symptoms of COVID. (Kukla’s Korner)

*It was the nightmare before Christmas and all through the Maple Leafs’ house not a creature was stirring because they were all in COVID protocol. (Toronto Star)

*Hats off to the St. Louis Blues game ops people for crushing it with the Christmas lookalikes at a recent Blues home game. Merry, merry Christmas!

The St. Louis Blues did holiday character lookalikes on the Jumbotron and kinda nailed it 😂

*For something completely different: Were Adam Sandler’s comedy albums influential to this generation’s standup comedians and comedy writers? Absolutely. (The Cut)
