Bergeron on WEEI

Some time after 1:30 today, Patrice Bergeron will field questions from Dale Arnold and Mike Holley on WEEI. Be sure to tune in and support one of our favorite Bruins!

Update 1:48
Patrice sounded very confident about coming back this season while speaking on WEEI today. He mentioned that he is taking this very slow because of the severity of the injury but, he is taking everything in a positive light. With his positive attitude it seems like the best positive result can come from all this, full health. Bergeron also mentioned that these last two days (skated for the first time in as many days) he turned a corner in his recovery. Think about how Bergeron sounded compared to today's interview. He has done a 180 since then. The next corner will probably be him practicing with the team again.

Get well, Patrice! We can not wait to see you at full health wearing the Spoked B in the Garden again.

It's bittersweet for me as it is for the Bruins organization. On one side, he is fighting to come back to this team as soon as he can. On the other are the Bruins, who still are not using his salary under LTIR to have the space - probably knowing if they do, Patrice might force himself more and then suffer a setback. Look at Gagne in Philly - I hope for him, he's not back until October and not back until he's really ready. And if I was a player I'd hang his jersey behind the bench at every game to show the ultimate team support. Who knows, maybe he'll do like Dennis Savard did in 1993 and pace the bench with Julien during the playoof drive (oops, did I say playoffs?) I can hardly sleep knowing that in 28 hours we'll be playing the Sens - and which Bruin we will never see again (Murray, Axe, Kessel?), and who will we say hello to (Boyle, Havlat, Liles?).
