Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron is coming back for his 19th season after signing a one-year, $2.5 million deal with Boston. More:
that Bergeron, a five-time Selke Trophy winner, was his first call. Team CEO Charlie Jacobs said Bergeron, who was unsigned and contemplating retirement, was expected to return."The fire, desire and passion were too strong for me to take that path right now," Bergeron told reporters."I'm not ready, I guess, for the next step of my life. I still have some in the tank, something to give.
When he does leave, the Bruins are expected to retire his No. 37, making him the 12th player so honored. He is a likely first-ballot inductee for the Hockey Hall of Fame as soon as he is eligible -- now, that won't be until at least 2026. Bergeron is third in Bruins history with 1,216 games played, and fourth in goals, assists and points. He is second all-time for the Bruins with 47 playoff goals and 123 points.
Bergeron played 2021-22 without a future contract for the first time in his career, scoring 25 goals with 40 assists and helping the Bruins reach the playoffs for the 14th time in his 18 seasons. They were eliminated by the Hurricanes in seven games.
