Former Bruins Patrice Bergeron

Well better then letting it linger. I'll be honest, I thought all along, that if they had this amazing start, that eventually they would convince him to come back. The hard no hurts, but not as much as it would at the dealine on 3/7 Return of the Champion night. Geesh.
God Bless Bergy and his family. Thank you for the cup and all of the wonderful years. By far my favorite player of all time.

I never said it would tarnish his image I just said I agreed with the post I quoted.
Also just in general I hate when players in any sport retire and un retire. Not fair to the keep players and teams in constant limbo like that.
Nothing to do with his legacy. It's unimpeachable. I'm just wholly against comebacks. As I said, IMO when you're done, you're done. Simple as that.

Internet clowns doing internet things to generate those clicks. Nothing more, nothing less. Bergy is happy and content and will not be playing again.

Bergeron probably retired with more wear and tear than nearly all NHLers when the phone stops ringing. Would be awesome to get him back for 1 last run but I don't think its realistic.

Aside from catastrophic career ending injuries ala Bobby or Cam, I can't think of a player who endured more and kept on playing.

I honestly thought his style of play and his fitness level would have allowed him to still be incredibly effective as a player for a few more years. But he's definitely the type of character that when he commits to something, like retiring and being home with family, he's not turning back.
Yes, they treated the notion as a joke, but Spittin' Chicklets is poop, as is anything remotely related to Barstool Sports.
Unwatchable, unlistenable garbage.

You're really giving yourself credit for saying a player that retired, and has constantly said when asked that he's not coming back, is going to stay retired, as if you broke some major f***ing news? Guess what? 99.9999999999999% of the fans here all said the same. I guess we're all "reporters" too....
Maybe you should work on finally apologizing to Phil Kessel for slander instead of taking victory laps over something 99 percent of us knew wasn't happening.
