I think we might all be reading into this incorrectly. I would not be surprised if he is ill, or has some nagging ailment after an 82 game season. However, I think this might be more of a case of the Coach managing ice time in hopes that the fatigue factor on the other side plays a big role in games 5,6, and 7. I don't think for a second that the Ice time looks like what it did if we didn't jump out to a 2 goal and a 3 goal lead.

I asked a friend of mine today if Bergeron should be in the HOF. It took him a while and then he said no because he hasn't had a 100 point season. I said well no, not even close but maybe this year he could if he played 82;). Oh, my friend also forgot 2 gold medals.

Gordie Howe must've just snuck into the Hall in his opinion...after all he only had 1 100pt season out of 26

In addition, they better remove Bourque, Rocket Richard, Mikita, Neely, etc

Beregon will more than likely win his record setting 5th Selke Trophy award this Year as best defensive forward in the game.
Hint: Defense wins Championships

Bergeron:
World Championship 2004
World Juniors Championship 2005 1st player ever to win a worlds Gold before a Juniors gold
World Juniors MVP 2005
Olympic Gold 2010
Olympic Gold 2014
Spengler Cup Gold Medal 2012
One of only 28 players to be a member of Triple Gold Club and the only player to also win a Gold in the Spengler Cup
Staney Cup 2011
Stanley Cup game winning goal 2011 in game 7
2012-13 King Clancy award winner
2011-12 Selke Award winner
2013-14 Selke Award Winner
2014-15 Selke Award Winner
2016-17 Selke Award Winner
2011-12 Plus-Minus Award Winner

All these great accomplishments are Hall Of Fame worthy but doesn't come close to showing the actual value a player like Patrice Bergeron brings to a team!

and add to that, knock on wood, he'll reach 1,000 points (sitting at 813 now)

I feel the same... I'm sure he's not 100%... but no one really is at this time of year, and I think we are overreacting to his TOI in game 4. When he was out there he looked fine to me and was dominant on draws. I think we see Bergy have a big game today when the team needs it most.

It’ll be interesting to find out what’s wrong with Bergeron, because he’s playing like a shell of himself.

HE SLOW.at best a 2nd line centre nowadays

Was he a slow barely a second line player al season when his line was one of the handfull of most dominant lines in hockey?

He hasn't been great in the postseason, but I think the at best 2nd line center comment is just silly at this point

Toronto are concetrating on that only line that can generate something on a regular bases. He is not as good or clutch that is all. Crosby got one point in four games ... is he a second liner.
