Bourque back in Boston

[BF4L]

Ok so it is not Raymond my all time favorite player but it is his kid.

BOSTON (AP)

The Boston Bruins have another Bourque on their team, acquiring forward Chris Bourque from the Washington Capitals for center Zach Hamill.


Bourque is the 26-year-old son of Ray Bourque, the Hall of Fame defenseman who spent 21 seasons with the Bruins.

The deal was announced by Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli on Saturday.

Bourque appeared in 73 games for Hershey of the AHL, and scored 27 goals. He was drafted 33rd overall by the Capitals in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft. In 2009-10, Bourque appeared in 20 games for the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Hamill played in 16 games for Boston this season.

Ya well I am pretty busy right now and dont have time to go through every thread. In any case he is a AHLer and may stay that way but I love the fact the Bruins picked him up. Ray was and is my all time fav player. I know that he cant live up to his dad's skill and stuff but its kinda cool that both will have played for the same NHL team.

Have the Avalanche retired his number yet?

patience boss, gotta give that time.

Lake Erie fans ought to be jazzed though.

He'll sign with the Lake Erie Monsters in a few years and they'll win the Calder Cup.
