from Chris Johnston of Sportsnet,
This is supposed to be a young man’s league, but the greybeards have another shot at immortality.
Zdeno Chara. Patrice Bergeron. Brad Marchand. Tuukka Rask. David Krejci.
None of them are under 30 years of age, and each is still playing a prime-time role for the Boston Bruins eight years after first lifting the Stanley Cup in 2011. Together with a special group of young reinforcements, they’ve earned the opportunity to try and do it again.
“It’s very special. It means a lot,” said Bergeron. “We kind of grew up together. The core group has been through a lot, I guess. Ups and downs.
“Over the last few years we’ve built something special with the young guys … they’re a big part of this group and this team. They want to get better. They’re big-time players and they relish any challenge. It’s been a fun ride.”
