The comment comes from WEEI 93.7 FM in Boston, which covers sports news through interviews, stories & podcasts. The title for this latest one reads as such, "The Greg Hill Show: Wiggy believes that Patrice Bergeron has underachieved as a Boston Bruin."
The radio show was talking about if Patrice Bergeron will retire after the season and if some of his teammates, especially Brad Marchand, are ramping it up even more to try and make one last go at a Stanley Cup, in which "Wiggy" replies with:
"What if they get bounced in the second round? ... Then he's not really walking away into the sunset ... he'll always be an under-achiever in the sense of that they've only won one Stanley Cup with their talent."
The Stanley Cup is probably the hardest trophy to win in any professional sport. A trophy that NHL greats that make the Hockey Hall of Fame don't even have their name on.
It doesn't matter if Patrice Bergeron retired right now without winning another Stanley Cup. He's spent 18 years with the Boston Bruins and made the final three times, which is something some greats don't have the pleasure of doing once in their careers. Multiple Selke Trophies and near the top of many Bruins regular season and playoff leaderboards as well.
Bergeron will be "walking into the sunset" on whatever day he decides to call it quits.
If you want to give it a listen, skip to around the 25-minute.
