Was born in 1994 but don't remember much pre-Bergeron.
Brad Marchand - Underdog all the way. One of the most skilled and effective pests I've ever seen and watching him blossom into the player he became was nothing short of incredible.
Milan Lucic - The meanest mf I have ever, and probably will ever, see in a Bs uniform and on top of that he could play at top 6 level in his prime. A prototypical Bruin through and through and I'm still crushed on how it ended.
Marc Savard - He saw the ice like no other player, some of the passes he'd slip through a non-existent seem were unhuman. F Matt Cooke.
PJ Stock - Just an absolute pit bull. Little guy who would constantly go toe-to-toe with the heavies in some of the most entertaining fights I've ever seen. He also got into a fight at my very first Bruins game so I'll always have a soft spot for him lol
David Krejci - One of the most underappreciated players in Bruins history and maybe NHL history honestly. His ability to slow the game down to open up passing lanes was uncanny and he routinely carried a line saddled with a rotating cast of AHL wingers for the latter half of his career. A playoff monster on top of that.
Shawn Thornton - Knew his role and played it perfectly. A great teammate and and one of the rare enforcers who could play a regular shift without being a liability. Great technical fighter, rarely saw him get decisively beat. Also, backhand toe drag.
Tim Thomas - Certainly the most entertaining goalie of my time. Fiery guy who did everything possible to make saves that were nigh-impossible and wouldn't take any crap. Any time a game would start getting out of hand you knew he would be feeding someone the blocker at some point. Legendary Cup Final performance.
Andrew Ference - Heart and soul guy. A great leader in the room and always had his teammates back. Him leveling Steve Ott in one of the Dallas games plays on repeat in my head and giving the Habs faithful the bird is just the icing on the cake.
Adam McQuaid - The embodiment of meat and potatoes. Everything he did was for the team. Hit, fought and ate pucks for all three meals. Unfortunately all that meant he was pretty banged up most of the time.
David Pastrnak - The most fun I've ever had watching one specific player. Not really much else to say on him, his body of work speaks for itself.
