• Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Scores goal Saturday

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Zacha scored a goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators. This is the second time Zacha has recorded points in back-to-back games this season, but the 27-year-old's production has been disappointing overall. He has notched just three goals and three assists in 16 appearances. His role as a top-six forward gives him opportunities to produce, but he's not taking advantage of his chances so far. His minimal production suggests he isn't a reliable fantasy asset across most formats.

• Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Two-point effort against Flames

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Zacha scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over Calgary. It's the first multi-point performance of the season for Zacha, snapping him out of a slump that had seen the 27-year-old record just one assist over the prior 12 contests. Despite that lack of production, Zacha has maintained a spot in Boston's top six thanks to his faceoff prowess -- he was a perfect 8-for-8 at the dot Thursday, and on the season he's won 51.9 percent of his draws.

• Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Chips in with power-play assist

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Zacha notched a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Maple Leafs. Zacha had gone six games without a point before helping out on a David Pastrnak tally in the second period. The 27-year-old Zacha has maintained his top-six role during the slump, and it will be tough for him to stay quiet when seeing big minutes alongside fellow Czech forward Pastrnak. Zacha has three points, 21 shots on net, nine PIM, two hits and a minus-1 rating through nine appearances.

• Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Opens with point streak

  Zacha had an assist and two shots on net in Thursday's 6-4 win over Montreal. The Bruins top line combined for the fourth goal, as the forechecking Zacha and Elias Lindholm each won puck battles that led to David Pastrnak's tally. Zacha had the primary assist, spinning away from David Savard behind the net and finding an impossibly open Pastrnak in the slot. It was the second point in as many games for Zacha, who scored in the season-opening loss to Florida.

• Bruins' Pavel Zacha: Nets goal Tuesday

  10/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Zacha scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Panthers. Zacha showed immediate success with Elias Lindholm, who set up his first-period tally. The 27-year-old Zacha is making the move to left wing with Lindholm in the fold to play center. Both of them may take on more playmaking roles with the third member of their line being David Pastrnak, who also scored in the contest. Zacha has topped the 20-goal mark in both of his years with the Bruins despite never exceeding 150 shots on net, so expect him to continue to be a selective and efficient shooter as well as a decent source of hits -- he had 106 body checks last season.
