    Default {Rumour} Bergeron coming out of retirement

    BizNasty has said that he has heard rumours that Bergeron is coming out of retirement to play for the Bruins.

    Kind of like Mike Fischer did back when Nashville was a strong team.

    Would be awesome if he came back for one final playoff push.

    I think it was more of Biz just churning the rumor mill.

    Would love to see Bergy back with the Bruins, but I believe that he stays in retirement and enjoys life with his family.

    Bergeron logged a lot of miles and put his body through a lot. I get that he has a competitive spirit and the Bs seem poised to do well (just like seemingly every President's Trophy winning team from the previous season has of late), but I think he wouldn't have retired unless he intended to stay retired. I'd peg the odds of this happening at maybe 15%, tops.

    I wouldn’t be surprised. He’s probably washed too many dishes.

    Not really what he was saying in a french newspaper a few days ago. Seems really happy in his role as a dad and giving back his wife the time she needs to fulfill her dream. e's playing once a week for fun, not kinda workload for a coming out of retirement

    In case anyone wanted to know, I asked Patrice Bergeron about his “comeback”. Via text, he responded “I am NOT making a comeback.” His emphasis on the “NOT.” Carry on.

    I believe the full quote was "I am not NOT making a comeback."

    Bergeron has a cup ring.
    If he didn't... I'd say this might hold some merit.

    I doubt he's coming back and has any interest in coming back. I would say it is <10%.

    Only other tidbit I can add is Jamie McLennan said this week on a Flames spot that Bergeron skates more frequently in Boston than any recently retired player he can remember and hangs around the Bruins rink/dressing room more than any recently retired player he can remember.
