Lindholm Opens Up About Bergeron and Krejci's Departures
Boston Bruins defenseman Hampus Lindholm recently sat down with the media to talk about the big question on everyone's minds as the upcoming season approaches: How will the team fare without the legendary duo of Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci?
In his own words, Lindholm expressed,
«It's obviously a question I'm going to get a lot...those guys have been around that team for so long and it's almost like their personalities and what they've taught everyone is put into the walls and the ceiling there in that locker room. Me, I'm just super excited to show that culture keeps living on and show what we can do without them. Obviously, you can never replace players like that, but we've got some young guys that are excited to show what they can do in this league. I think we have a really good squad, coaches and staff and everything around us to have success. I think Bergeron and [Zdeno] Chara and Krejci, and all those guys created a culture that everyone really wants to carry on and show still exists, show what Bruins hockey is. It's never going to go away.»
Lindholm's excitement is palpable as he looks forward to carrying on the rich culture left behind by Bergeron, Krejci, and other veteran Bruins players. While he acknowledges that players like Bergeron are irreplaceable, he has faith in the young talents ready to step up and contribute to the team's legacy.
The Bruins are coming off an impressive regular season where they set records for points and wins, but their playoff journey was cut short in the first round by the Florida Panthers. As they gear up for the new season, the challenge of charting a new course without Bergeron and Krejci is indeed a daunting one.
