“To be Captain of an Original Six franchise is an honor, and a role that comes with much responsibility to his teammates and the fans,” said Bruins Owner Jeremy Jacobs. “There is no doubt in my mind that Patrice is the natural successor to the Captain role, and he will represent this franchise very well. He has consistently and reliably contributed to this team’s advancement and has been an adept leader for many years, both on and off the ice. His tenure as Captain will be one of great success.”
“Throughout Patrice Bergeron’s historic career with the Boston Bruins, he has carried himself with great integrity, humility and resiliency,” said Bruins CEO Charlie Jacobs, “These qualities make Patrice a natural leader and an obvious choice as to who should serve as the next Captain of the Boston Bruins. We are incredibly proud to have Patrice fill this important role and look forward to watching him lead the locker room this season and beyond.”
