The Bruins could make Pastrnak available to the Czech Republic to play on its national team in the 2016 IIHF World Junior Championships when the NHL's roster freeze ends on Dec. 28, reports the Associated Press, but only if Boston doesn't have any injuries.

Analysis:

Pastrnak missed seven weeks with a broken foot before suiting up for two games in the AHL. Bruins' general manager said he hopes the experience overseas would help Pastrnak's confidence. A decision will come Monday.
