[smithformeragent]

Hes everything a Bruin can apire to be.

He’s like the Gee Wally of athletes.

 

[Ladyfan]

Bergy's wife is adorable too.

 

[BruinsFTW]

Bergy's wife is adorable too.

They do make a gorgeous couple

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Hes everything a Bruin can apire to be.

Or any other human for that matter. Wonderful guy

 

[Alicat]

The way he talks about his family makes me love him more

 

[Kate08]

You can see how much his family means to him. Not always the case.

We are so lucky to have him here

100%. I feel blessed I've watched his entire career unfold. I missed Bobby Orr and before...saw part of Bourques...Neely..Bergeron is truly a special Bruin and I'm glad to have watched his entire career here.

 

[SPV]

This is a great show on Bergeron. Still amazing that he's come back from that gruesome injury in '07 to build a hall of fame career.

Watching it makes me want Looch back too. But not really.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Well done NESN!

 

[BMC]

NESN should get an Emmy for this

 

[PB37]

Loved the special. It covered most of what you would want to see out of Bergeron's career and his home life without being too invasive. Well done, NESN!

 

[Bruinaura]

They don't make very many like that guy

 

[Mione134]

I could have watched 2 hours more of that. Truly amazing. NESN did a great job.

[4ORRBRUIN]

We are blessed in Boston. Especially Bruins fans

 

[Bruinaura]

His English really has improved. The French accent was super thick when he was a kid.

 

[BruinsFTW]

I could have watched 2 hours more of that. Truly amazing. NESN did a great job.

100%. Was a great special. Would have loved if it was 2 hours and more in depth but still it was well done.

Whose the next closest Bruin to 1000? Chara is 71 away? Holy shit....I hope he hits it, would be special...Krejci has like 750 or so too so I'd imagine him being 2nd...

 

[GloryDaze4877]

Great stuff, Bergeron such a special person.

Also, side note, Martin LaPointe is a f***ing tank.

 

[FribbleLine]

That was a great special. We are lucky to have Bergy. On a side note his wife is gorgeous.

Tomas Kaberle

He made about 3 plays that playoffs that ended up setting up big goals, IIRC.

Wasn’t great overall....but did make some key plays.

Watching this brings back so many memories.

The night Jones concussed him, my wife and I were celebrating our 10th anniversary at The Christmas Farm Inn, in Jackson NH. We watched the Sox win the WS that night and I recorded the Bruins and watched it Sunday when we got home. I avoided seeing the B’s score or hearing anything about the game and then saw it Sunday night,

I also remember being on here during Patrice’s first camp....a bunch of us....Neelynugs for sure, I think DKH among others who saw him live kept posting about how good he looked and as the camp progressed we were certain he’d stick, but so many here (Jefff From Maine, most prominent) told us we were crazy. he stuck and it’s been a lightning fast 15 years. My kids went from diapers to high school in a flash.

Oh I know. I just forgot about him. Made me laugh to see him in the highlights.

 

[GlenFeatherstone]

That Bergeron Raycroft commercial I completely forgot about. Bergeron on and off the ice is everything you want in a player and a human being.

 

[sarge88]

Oh I know. I just forgot about him. Made me laugh to see him in the highlights.

A lot of good memories from watching this.

 

[Bruinaura]

Also confirmed, he did have a broken nose in 2013 from the Pittsburgh series, although he claimed it was better by Chicago game 6. "It'll never be right"

I think he's broken his nose at least 4 times by now. Ouch.
