Bergeron, Rask Clean Up at NHL Awards

The NHL Awards were in Las Vegas last night and the Bruins did pretty well for themselves. The Awards were hosted by Cuba Gooding Jr., a no brainer pick for a hockey awards ceremony.

The B’s were 3/4 on awards, with Bergeron taking home the Selke and NHL Player Foundation Award for all his good charitable work in the community. Rask got the Vezina, which was no surprise. Chara was the only Bruin nominated not getting an award.

Bergeron also won the NHL15 vote for the cover over PK Subban, so that was nice to get one win over the Canadiens.

The last time the B’s were this successful at the awards was back in 09, when Claude took home Coach of the Year, Thomas the Vezina, and Chara the Norris.

It is a nice consolidation prize, but I know all those guys would trade those individual awards for the big shiny one currently held by the Kings.

 

Bergy’s First (Regular Season) Fight vs Myers

Bergeron is my guy. Favorite player on the B’s. Best all around player. When you see Patrice dropping the gloves you know somethings going down cause he NEVER drops them. He takes on the 6’8″ Tyler Myers of the Sabres.

It wasn’t fight of the century or anything, but its just the act of it. He wasn’t taking Myers crap anymore. Plus, don’t forget Bergy has a concussion history, so for him to be willing to go means he was really pissed off.
