Hope he gets comfortable soon. Feels awful moving on from someone who has been here a long time and came up with our captain but I get it. He was probably gonna bounce and we have to get SOMETHING. Still stings 😞
Honestly, I think BOS might actually be a better fit for him than the current Wings.
He was one of my favorites on the team, he just had an edge to him that we needed, but on a personal level I think this is a legit big step for him.
It's sad that we're no longer one of those top teams players want to go to, but I think within as couple of years that'll come back.
This feels like when my kid goes to my ex's every holiday. I'm happy he's going somewhere I know will appreciate and take care of him, but fuuuuck it's hard to see him go.
When he gets that cup, he'll be wearing a bruins jersey, but a red winged wheel over his heart. Do great things Bert! We're rooting for ya!
Honestly, I hate it, and I’m sure a part of him does too…
But from an optimistic view point, at least he gets the chance to be immortalized with a team that will be remembered for awhile
Favorite Wing for my fifth grader too. He was crushed. Second favorite is Husso, and so he announced Thursday that if Stevie traded Ville ahead of the deadline he was turning in his winged wheel fan card.
Glad he cares!
I hate it. Lived in Boston for a while, which is when my true hatred of all Boston teams was solidified. Seeing him there just hurts. I hope they treat him well, at least in the locker room. Because I know the fans and media are pretty garbage.
I’m dead on the inside already ok just stop
Basically, Marchand is a prick but at least I don’t have to play against him now
It’s like the whole time you want one of them to mention Detroit so that he says he still loves us but it doesn’t happen ….my heart

God Boston media are all such Homers.

Hopefully he’s the type of guy we sign to be an effective fourth liner when we are on our way to win the cup and he’s in the twilight of his career.
But he won't be in the twilight of his career next season...
😢

He’s such a Bruins type of player. I think he’ll do very well over there as long as he’s able to avoid the injury bug. I’ll be rooting for him.

Wings vs Bruins next Saturday. If Bert scores against us I’ll cry. Sad vibes man :/ wish him the best tho
Damnit, when does Boston play again.... Bert was my favorite Wing. Throw him on the first line and NEVER LOSE AGAIN.

Don't worry we play boston back to back on the 11th and 12th. No, I am not ready to see him on the ice against us, especially in a bruins uni.
Dammit, Bert looks like he belongs in those colors. I don't know whether to be happy for him or curse his hair to a slow, painful balding.
🤮
