Bruins' David Pastrnak: To face hearing for questionable hit

Pastrnak will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Friday regarding his charging/illegal check to the head of Rangers defenseman Dan Girardi on Wednesday,

Analysis:

Pastrnak received a two-minute minor from the officials on the play, with the incident taking place in the second period. While Girardi had to leave the ice to undergo concussion protocol, he later returned to the game, which undoubtedly will be a consideration as the NHL's safety division makes a decision about whether Pasta will face supplementary discipline.
