It's Pasta time.
Boston Bruins superstar David Pastrnak will make his season debut Saturday against the Washington Capitals, head coach Bruce Cassidy told reporters, including NHL.com's Amalie Benjamin.
Pastrnak, 24, underwent a right hip arthroscopy and labral repair in September.
Cassidy confirmed Pastrnak will rejoin Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron in his typical spot on the top line.
The sniper co-led the NHL with 48 goals in 2019-20 to capture his first career Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy. He also tallied a team-leading and career-best 95 points through 70 games.
Pastrnak ranks third in goals (155) since the start of the 2016-17 season and second in power-play markers with 60.
The Bruins are 5-1-1 this season and sit second in the East division entering Friday's action.
