David Pastrnak Takes A Hilarious Jab At The Toronto Maple Leafs During All-Star Weekend

The All-Star Game this season had a special twist with its return to Toronto. Each team was selected with a fantasy draft. Team Matthews was able to swindle their way into having all four Toronto Maple Leafs selected to the All-Star Game on one squad.

This foursome gave Team Matthews a huge advantage of familiarity during the games. They would use this familiarity to go on and win the entire tournament.

After the tournament was over every player involved was interviewed before their All-Star Game obligations were complete. During David Pastrnak's media time, he decided to pick a fight with the Maple Leafs and their fanbase.

During his media availability, David Pastrnak was asked about Team Matthews' victory. In particular, he was asked about the Maple Leafs' impact on the win for Team Matthews. In his answer, Pastrnak took a savage but hilarious jab at the Maple Leafs All-Stars.

Pastrnak woke up and chose violence after that All-Star game. The Maple Leafs have notoriously not lived up to expectations. Pastrnak made sure to make light of this and remind fans that their team is still in a questionable spot.

He has continued to paint himself as a villain in the minds of Maple Leafs fans. In doing so he has stoked the flames of the rivalry between the two Original Six clubs. It will be fascinating to see if these comments become bulletin board material for the Maple Leafs the next time these two clubs play.
