Value of: Patrice Bergeron's next contract and where will he sign

[Voight]

The worst part about Hughes becoming GM is now Habs fans think every player he represented wants to play there .... especially the French Canadian ones

The only reason Letang would sign there is if hes purely lookin for $$$$... cause he ain't winning another cup there

Buffalo 2 x $9 M

Bergeron and Letang are coming home!

Top marginal tax rate of 53.3% -- lots of players coming home for that. NY taxes too high too. Bet if goes somewhere with no state taxes.

Stays in beantown for one year, or retires...............leaning towards retiring.

My gut says retiring, my heart says 1-2 more with the Bruins, basic logic says it won’t be a bottom feeders. Sorry Habs and Sabres, ain’t happening. And that’s not a dig. We’ll be joining you shortly

He already came out and said it's Boston or retirement, which could always be a farce but I don't see Patrice doing Boston dirty like that unless they completely insult him with an offer like league minimum. I'd guess 2x6 or something of the like.

Wouldn't have expected him to even consider the Sabres anyway. I couldn't picture him as anything but a Bruin at this point. Don't believe any Sabres fans would take offense that Bergeron wouldn't want to play there, I sure don't.

Boston 1 year $5,000,000 then retires.

It's obvious. He's coming to Los Angeles. The Kings will ice one of Bergeron, Kopitar, and Danault for the entire game and no opposing team will score a goal.

The Kings will go 0-0-82 with 82 shootout losses en route to missing the playoffs.

Bergeron to MTL is the dumbest rumor out there, lol. Boston or retirement.

It's just wishful thinking from those of us who consider the Bruins a rival. I still think retirement is better but there is a certain sick humor in Bergeron being a Hab. 0 chance it happens but a great HF what if.

Patrice Bergeron is a Quebecer but he's not a Montreal guy. He's from outside of Quebec City and was a Nordiques fan growing up, so I don't think he falls into the Canadiens orbit.

Bruins Notebook: Patrice Bergeron remembers Guy Lafleur

“He was my Dad’s favorite player growing up,” said Patrice Bergeron. “So I heard a lot about him when I was coming up and playing hockey and some of the stories, some of the thing…
