RUMOR: Patrice Bergeron To Come Out Of Retirement And Re-Join Bruins?
The Boston Bruins have once again been one of the best teams in the NHL this season. However, they still lock center depth after Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci both retired in the offseason. Now one of these players could potentially be on his way back.
New Rumors About Bergeron Coming Out Of Retirement Emerge
Former NHL enforcer and current TNT analyst Paul Bissonnette revealed today that he has heard rumors that Bergeron could be coming out of retirement to rejoin the Bruins this year. Given that Bissonnette is one of the most well-connected analysts in the league, these rumors could very well have some credibility to them.

Any word on Patrice Bergeron returning? I still think it's happening.
Bruins fans are certainly excited about the possibility that he could return this year.
In all seriousness — can we just at least acknowledge that every time Patrice Bergeron has appeared on TV he's looked as bit (if not more) fit as he did when he played?
