BOSTON — David Pastrnak took control of the game, and then took over the postgame news conference from his linemate Brad Marchand. “I’ll take this,” Pastrnak said with a smile. “Marchy’s a bit crispy tonight.”One game after the Bruins’ top line combined for five points, Pastrnak, Marchand and Patrice Bergeron scored three goals and totaled six points in a 4-3 victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets that gave Boston a 3-2 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinal series. Pastrnak flipped a cross-ice pass from Marchand into the goal to cap a wild third period, and Tuukka Rask stopped 33 shots for the Bruins. Marchand had a goal and two assists, and David Krejci also scored for Boston.
