It seems like ever since Patrice Bergeron announced his retirement last July, there have been rumours of a potential comeback. That's probably because Bergeron went out scoring 27 goals and 58 points in his last season, and seemed to have at least another two to three good years left.
Bergeron has been spotted lately skating in Boston with some former teammates and friends, once again sparking rumours that he might be coming back. Bergeron denied those rumours again last week, saying he's happy in retirement. He's now come out to explain the weekly skate on Fridays.
Two of the former teammates of Bergeron's at the weekly skate are goaltenders Tuukka Rask and Jaroslav Halak. According to the latest report, Halak is most definitely still looking for an NHL team to sign him for this season, and is likely using the weekly gathering to stay in game shape.
Bergeron seems very happy with his retirement. Personally, I really don't see him returning to the NHL as a player, although I could absolutely see a front office position somewhere in the future.
