Amazingly, the B’s don’t even list Willie O’Ree as having worn #22 in the All-Time Roster section. Interesting they didn’t proofread all facts about Willie prior to the big announcement of his jersey going to the rafters.

Page 266:

O’REE, Willie ... Left/Right Wing ... 5’10” ... 175 ... Oct. 15, 1935 in Fredericton NB ... (#25; #27) ... Traded to Montreal with Stan Maxwell for Cliff Pennington and Terry Gray, June, 1961
1957-58; 1960-61 45 4 10 14 26 - - - -

The Bruins true historian died 2 years ago.

I was not informed that you died two years ago. Your ghost is very helpful though!

:sarcasm:

I have butted heads with the Bruins historian many, many, many times

You might want to tell them that Bergeron has four playoff overtime goals now.

Also he's the only player in hockey history (not just Canada, as they say) to have won gold at WC before WJC. That's my favorite Bergy trivia answer. :laugh:

Go to page 341 of the media guide and the historian's email is there.
