Bergeron, 38, won an NHL record six Selke Trophies and the 2011 Stanley Cup.
The Boston Bruins finally have their answer from their captain. Patrice Bergeron has announced his retirement from hockey at 38. He walks away from a career that will surely earn him enshrinement in the Hockey Hall of Fame someday, perhaps on the first ballot. He tallied 427 goals and 1,040 points across 1,294 NHL games. Winning a record six Selke Trophies, including one for the 2022-23 season, Bergeron is regarded as the greatest defensive forward of all-time.
. “I have had the honor of playing in front of the best fans in the world wearing the Bruins uniform and representing my country at the highest levels of international play. I have given the game everything that I have physically and emotionally, and the game has given me back more than I could have ever imagined.”pick of the 2003 NHL Draft, and he jumped directly to the NHL at 18 in the 2003-04 season, scoring 16 goals as the league’s youngest player.
After mulling retirement last summer, Bergeron returned for one more year and helped the Bruins win an NHL-record 65 games in the 2022-23 regular season. They fell to the Florida Panthers in an epic first-round upset, however, and Bergeron was limited to just three games in the series with what was later revealed to be a herniated disc in his back.
The Bruins and GM Don Sweeney now face the difficult task of replacing their No. 1 center – with No. 2 center and UFA David Krejci also still mulling his future with the team.
