Whether Patrice Bergeron has played his final game for Boston or not, the embrace he shared with longtime teammate Brad Marchand shouldn't go unnoticed.
A Moment Between Best Friends
As the Bruins held ''breakup day'' at Warrior Ice Arena earlier this week, Bergeron met with a swarm of media in front of his locker to discuss that moment the two friends shared.
Ian McLaren of Locked On Bruins shared the captain's emotional quote:
''Yeah, you know, it was a lot of emotions in that moment, and obviously, I've always said, we feel pretty lucky to have had that bond and playing together for so long, so it's obviously extra special, so obviously it got to me when it got to him, and it's one of those years that we know, we failed to accomplish what we wanted, so, trust me, it hurts just as much as we know the fanbase is hurt as well and hurting, it stings, we feel the same way."
As if the duo's hug was enough to take in!
Just like a year ago, the Bruins had their season end in game-seven disappointment, and once again, Bergeron will be an unrestricted free agent on July 1st.
