Watch: David Pastrnak sets career high with another pretty goal

That didn't take long.

David Pastrnak scored 15 goals in 51 games last season as a 19-year-old. Not bad at all - and he was only getting started.

The Boston Bruins forward is on a mission in 2016-17. He scored again Wednesday night, his 16th goal - a new career high - in only 22 games. And it was rather something.

Pastrnak's insane production is masking the fact that Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, and Ryan Spooner have just 11 goals combined (four, four, and three, respectively).

Only two men have more goals than Pastrnak this season, and you may have heard of them: Sidney Crosby and Patrik Laine.
