From Sidney Crosby to Patrick Kane and Scott Stevens, the Flyers and their fans have turned special opponents into Philadelphia villains. Whether it's consistently beating the Flyers in the playoffs or infamously dirty plays, it takes a special kind of player to be hated by Philadelphia fans. One player is quickly moving up the villain list for Philadelphia fans after his most recent performance.
On Saturday, the Flyers were dominated by a familiar Eastern Conference foe in the Boston Bruins as the Bruins marched into Philly and cruised to a 6-2 victory on Saturday afternoon.
Bruins right wing David Pastrnak led the way for the Bruins, pouring in three points with two goals and an assist. After another dominant performance against the Flyers the question has to be asked; is David Pastrnak becoming a Philadelphia villain?

Pasta's stats against the Flyers are absolutely ridiculous. In 29 games against the Flyers, Pastrnak has recorded 42 points with 26 goals and 16 assists with a +24 rating. Straight video game numbers from one of the NHL's best.
Pastrnak made it look easy against the Flyers yesterday, opening the scoring in the first period with a goal that seemed like practice for the guy who is third in the NHL in points.
With Sidney Crosby and Patrick Kane still in the NHL, where does Pastrnak rank among Flyers rivals?
