Dudes a total legend.

I remember a few years ago, the bruins eliminated the hurricanes. In the handshake line Brind'Amour (while coach) told Bergeron that he was his favorite player to watch.

Pretty high praise as far as I'm concerned.

That's a big hole to fill for Boston, and one hell of a career for Bergeron.

Not a fan of the Bruins. Absolutely a fan of Bergeron. Total class act that leaves a tremendous legacy.

Bergeron's a class act. He will be missed for sure.

I legitimately hope they re-name the Selke after him.
