JUST-ANNOUNCE: HE’S BACK! Bruins Stun NHL by Bringing Legendary Patrice Bergeron Behind the Bench As Assistant Coach

Posted on June 20, 2025 by Dre

The Boston Bruins have made a major move behind the bench, officially signing franchise legend Patrice Bergeron as an assistant coach. The announcement comes less than a year after Bergeron retired from his Hall of Fame-worthy playing career, and Bruins fans are already buzzing about his return in a new role. Known for his leadership, intelligence, and two-way excellence on the ice, Bergeron now brings those same qualities to the coaching staff.

Bergeron spent his entire 19-year NHL career with the Bruins, becoming one of the most respected players in the league. He captained the team in his final seasons, won a Stanley Cup in 2011, and earned six Selke Trophies, more than any player in NHL history. His presence in the locker room was legendary, and now, he’ll look to guide the next generation of Bruins with that same steady hand — this time from behind the bench.

The decision to bring Bergeron onto the coaching staff reflects Boston’s commitment to continuity and culture. Head coach Jim Montgomery praised the move, calling Bergeron “a natural fit” and “an extension of the leadership we’ve always valued.” His familiarity with the current roster and intimate understanding of the Bruins’ system gives the team a unique edge heading into the 2025–26 season.

Players are reportedly thrilled to have Bergeron back in the building, this time as a mentor. For young centers like Charlie Coyle and John Beecher, learning from one of the greatest two-way forwards in NHL history is a rare and invaluable opportunity. Bergeron’s return is expected to boost morale, sharpen the team’s focus, and add a championship mindset to the coaching staff.

While Bergeron may no longer be lacing up the skates, his impact on the Bruins is far from over. His shift from team captain to assistant coach marks a new chapter — one that could help lead Boston back to Stanley Cup contention. For the Bruins, this is more than just a coaching hire — it’s the return of a legend.
