Pastrnak returns to Bruins' lineup for Game 5

Boston Bruins superstar David Pastrnak is back in action for Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Carolina Hurricanes.

Pastrnak has been sidelined since Game 1 with an undisclosed injury. He racked up a goal and an assist in his only appearance of the series.

The 24-year-old winger was tied for the league lead in goals with 48 when the regular season was shut down in March, and he had already established a new career high with 95 points.

Boston holds a 3-1 series lead over Carolina and can advance to Round 2 with a win.
