Two-time Olympic champion, forward and captain of Boston Patrice Bergeron announced his retirement.
The 37-year-old Canadian spent 19 seasons with the Bruins after being drafted in 2003. In 2020, the striker replaced Zdeno Hara as captain of Boston.
During his NHL career, Bergeron scored 1,040 points (427 goals and 613 assists) in 1,294 games. Patrice has received the Selke Trophy for best defensive forward six times. With Boston, Bergeron won the Stanley Cup in 2011.
As part of the Canadian national team, the forward won the Olympic Games twice in 2010 and 2014. Patrice also became the 2004 World Champion.
Last season, Boston became the winner of the Eastern Conference following the results of the NHL regular season. In the first round, the Bruins were eliminated from the Stanley Cup, losing to Florida.
What a ride it was.
Thanks for the memories, Patrice.#MerciBergy | #NHLBruins pic.twitter.com/alYR1pZyPu
