Yesterday the Boston Bruins revealed a new statue outside of TD Garden as they prepare to take on the Montreal Canadiens for their centennial celebration.

NESN covered this whole event, and had some big appearances from the Bruins including alternate governor Charlie Jacobs, Cam Neely, Brad Marchand and there were many more alumni special guests as well.

The whole event:

Here is what the new statue outside of TD Garden looks like:

Harry Weber, the same artist that brought the famous Bobby Orr statue to TD Garden is the same person who just crafted this new statue outside of TD Garden yesterday.

«The statue stands 6-feet tall, 10-feet long and weighs 3,500 pounds. The bear is composed of 90 individual bronze pieces all welded together, and positioned on a 28-inch plinth, which is inscribed with a message directed to the Boston community,» the Bruins revealed in a statement. «The inscription reflects the core values and legacy that the team and its fans have fostered in the city throughout its first century.»

All Bruins fans that are attending the game today will each receive individually numbered commemorative tickets to celebrate this historic milestone.

Before puck drops, the Boston Bruins are set to host a special pregame ceremony that will have some special appearances from some of the Bruins alumni.

During this ceremony the Bruins are going to take a look back on the teams 100-year history presented in a time capsule at center ice with the theme of passing the puck on to the next generation.

This is going to be a big game for the Bruins as a win today would tie them for the second wildcard position in the Eastern Conference.
