Axe Heads To Sweden


After 797 career NHL games, all with the Boston Bruins, PJ Axelsson is heading back to his motherland to play professional hockey in the Swedish Elite League. Axe has been with the Black and Gold since 1995...amazing.

McKeon's Take: I will miss Axe dearly in a Bruins uniform. He left everything out on the ice and always did so many thankless jobs out there. I will look forward to him (hopefully) playing in the Olympics this coming February for Sweden and wish him the best of luck going forward. We'll miss you Axe!

i agree. He was a very hard worker and although many thought he should have been traded, i believe he was a big contributor to the bruins. wish him all the best in sweden.
