Pastrnak on injury: 'I let the guys down a bit'. MORE:
spoke publicly Monday for the first time since injuring his thumb at a team event on Feb. 10.
"I let the guys down a bit," Pastrnak said, per NHL.com."Obviously it's tough time, you know? It's not an injury that happened on the ice. I took full responsibility for that and obviously that's what hurt me most. Could I avoid it? Obviously, I wish and I think these things happen. But definitely the thing that I could let somebody down, I hate that. The first couple of weeks was tough.
"On my way to the car, I slipped and I fell," said Pastrnak."It was unfortunate that I got hurt from it. I was really upset. It would be the last thing I wanted to do. Four weeks in the gym, skating with no stick. Obviously, these things happen in life and I just try to take advantage and get better as a player."
