Patrice Bergeron needs to stay healthy

Patrice Bergeron has been Mr. consistent. The Boston Bruins have always been able to rely on him. Year after year hr seems to continue to be dominant.

This season is more of the same. Bergeron has 17 goals 18 assists so far this season. He hasn’t been on the same level as David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand but still pretty good. Especially for a 34-year-old center.

But one problem that Bergeron has had is his health. He has had a nagging groin injury and always seems to get even more hurt as the season progresses. Bergeron has played in 31 of the Bruins 40 games.

If Boston wants to be succesful they need Patrice Bergeron, a healthy Patrice Bergeron. If Bergeron is worn down in the playoffs he will hurt the Bruins 1st line.

So hopefully in 2020, Patrice Bergeron will be able to stay healthy and help the Bruins win a Stanley Cup.
