Breaking News: Bruins Captain Gives Career Update

Patrice Bergeron announced his retirement on Tuesday, ending a 19-year NHL career, all with the team who drafted him in 2003, the Boston Bruins. Bergeron was selected with the 45th overall pick in the second round and finishes his illustrious career after 1,294 career regular season games and 170 postseason games. The captain won six Selke Awards as the league’s best defensive forward, including winning the trophy this past season.

Bergeron totaled 427 goals and 613 assists, and a plus-289 over his career. In the playoffs, the dependable center registered 50 goals and 78 assists and led the team to a Stanley Cup championship in 2011. Bergeron was named captain before the 2020-21 season after Zdeno Chara left the team.

Bergeron had six 30-plus goal seasons and won the King Clancy Award in 2012-13 and the Mark Messier Award in 2020-21. The right-shot center was also a part of the 2010 and 2014 Olympic Gold Medal-winning teams with Canada and the World Cup championship team in 2017.

This last season, Bergeron scored 27 goals with 31 assists in 78 games. The Quebec native suffered an upper-body injury during the last regular season game in Montreal and missed the first four first-round playoff games against Florida. Bergeron returned for games five through seven in a seven-game upset loss to the Panthers.
