Patrice Bergeron, the captain of the Boston Bruins, is reflecting on the team’s early exit from the NHL playoffs in the opening round. The Bruins, who had set records for the most regular-season victories and points in NHL history, were eliminated by the Florida Panthers in a 4-3 overtime Game 7 victory.
Bergeron believes that the team’s success in the regular season may have created complacency, and they were not prepared for the intensity of playoff hockey. He also noted that the team’s lack of depth may have contributed to their struggles.
Bergeron, who is a veteran of the team and a four-time Selke Trophy winner, acknowledged that this may be his last chance to win another Stanley Cup with the Bruins. However, he remains optimistic about the team’s future and believes that they have a talented group of players who can make another deep playoff run.
Bergeron emphasized the importance of learning from their mistakes and using the disappointment of their early exit as motivation for the next season.
