This season, Morgan Geekie has been impressing a lot of people, and one of those is linemate David Pastrnak.
Geekie ended up setting a career high in goals with the Boston Bruins last season, scoring 33 in just 77 games after getting off to a slow start.
Because of this, the Bruins ended up rewarding him in the off-season by signing him to a six-year, $33 million contract.
So far this season, Geekie has not let the Bruins down after signing him to this new contract.
Geekie has been a scoring machine for the Bruins this year, leading the Bruins with 8 goals, and is currently tied for second on the team in points with 10.
Following their game, David Pastrnak spoke on Geekie's scoring ability and had some bold comments regarding him.
Pastrnak believes Geekie will score 50 goals
It may not be this year, but David Pastrnak believes that Morgan Geekie has what it takes to score 50 goals at some point in his career.
David Pastrnak on Morgan Geekie:
"He has everything to score 50 [goals] in this league. I keep telling him, keep reminding him. He has a heck of a shot.
"And he has the goal-scoring instinct. He's gonna get it one day."
"He has everything to score 50 [goals] in this league. I keep telling him, keep reminding him. He has a heck of a shot.
"And he has the goal-scoring instinct. He's gonna get it one day."
Right now, Geekie is on pace to score 54 goals if he keeps scoring at this rate.
50 goals is not an easy feat to do in the NHL, but Pastrnak believes that he is going to do it one day.
