Classy. Nice job, Berge…
He’s always been the only Bruin I like. Let’s go Buffalo!!
Bergeron is definitely one of the classiest NHL players. As someone from Boston, and obviously a bruins fan, we absolutely love everything about Bergy! Bruins are off to a fantastic start and we hope it's our year again!! 💜
Meanwhile….
Brad Marchand doing some mischief
He's to Orr what Ortiz is to Ted Williams with the Sox. Orr is on another level (as was Williams) and will always be the face of the Bruins, but #2 on my list is Patrice, ahead of Bourque, Esposito, Chara and Neely. Years after Patrice has retired, his legacy not just with the Bruins, but in Boston sports in general will rise exponentially to the point where he will become the standard by which all future Bruins are measured. Much like Orr, I wouldn't be surprised if #37 is retired within a year of his last game.
Bergy being the class of the NHL is the worst kept secret ever.
Classy move, they might be warriors on the ice, but they all have a human side to them as well
Should he be considered for the Hall of Fame?
Patrice is a class guy. Very caring Amongst his teammates as well opponents
Bergie makes unannounced visits to Boston Children's Hospital. Has for years.
Hehe. I openly admit that this cat is in Halifax and I am biased. Content is pretty good.
He’s a absolute class act
Nice and the Blues of course misused Tage…
San Jose player Vlasic made some milestone in game vs Bruins and once it was announced Bergy skated towards him and gave him a soft whack with his stick to congratulate him.
I noticed it and my respect for Bergy went up even more after witnessing that.
Absolutely zero disrespect, but the way you talk about Bergeron almost makes it seem like he’s a young developing prospect, not an almost guaranteed HOFer
Yeah but imagine if he was like, “No, it’s come back”… “Oh… sorry bro.” Talk about getting in somebody’s head. Probably best a question for after the game just in-case.
Hockey has so much to offer. Really great stuff from most of the players. Lifelong fan.
Bergie is the epotimie of class. Forget hockey, the dude is just the man. When I show my son a man to emulate, zero question #37 is THE one.
Just a regular Canadian guy. Understands the health of loved ones transcends a game.
I like how the Penguins all flew to Montreal to support Kris Letang at his fathers funeral.
Then Marchand spit on both of them
Bergeron is class. I’ve always felt that way even though he’s on a rival team. He represents what the NHL should be. Can’t give the man enough credit.
Hockey players are great humble guy's for the most part.
Can't say enough good things about Bergeron. He's a gem of a player and person. And Thompson? How does a guy that tall skate so well? Good luck to Tage, his family and Bergeron. All the best for all.
Bergeron has the Class His Teammate Marchand WILL NEVER HAVE AS BRADS A SCUMBAG and should have been forced out of the League for ALL OF HIS CHEAPSHOTS!
I'm not sure "winning over fans" is the right term. Bergy has always been a class act since he came into the league. He's well known as a high character guy. Bruins fans have been lucky to watch his great career. If this is his last year, I'd love to see him go out with another Stanley Cup. They definitely have a great chance to do that.
To say that Bostonians are proud would be putting it lightly 🚨. Looks like we're going all the way this year.
He’s one of the top 3 best all around players of all time the Bruins fans had the pleasure to watch over the past decades. He gives 110% every single day on and off the ice. Hockey is my favorite sport of all time. I’m a fair weather fan when it comes to the other major league sports teams In Boston. Best of the best on both ends of the ice, and off of the ice. He makes the world a better place and definitely makes the NHL better.

Big
I hate white pants
we kind od forget that inside their armor the are man with wife and kids…
touch me deep that one
not a fan of the Bruins, but I'm a fan of Bergeron
That kids gonna be a unit killed me
Bergeron the saint and Marchand the piece of shit on the same team is just wrong
That’s my captain❤.
“That kid is gonna be an absolute unit” I’m dead 😭
As a Sabre fan we obviously hate the Bruins but ya gotta love Bergeron man.
Wow. This makes me respect Boston as a team even more than their regular season this year. What a good dude.
Sucks that Canadian people aren’t like him anymore 😢
It's also a great way to throw off somebody's game. Bring up their wife's cancer right before puck-drop 😉
Congratulations on your retirement Bergy! You will be missed! Class act!
Had to come back to this after Bergy retired.
Bergeron and Thompson on the same sheet of ice……..that is something that every hockey fan loves to see and then when you top it off telling us what they were talking about prior to the face off, well, that truly is special. Kudos to both players and prayers go out to Tage's wife.
Surprising coming from the Boston Bruins, hard to believe that man is on the same team as Marchand
This isn’t news…. It’s just Patrice Bergeron.
Sad to see bergy go 😢
