Brad, for 16 years you have represented the Spoked-B with immense pride and passion. You set the tone every night with your intensity and drive, while becoming one of the best players in the history of our franchise.
You will forever be a Boston Bruin.
Thank you for everything.

One day, the practices, the games, the grind - it’s all gone.
Cherish every rep, every moment, every opportunity.
Don’t waste your sand. ⏳
As an athlete, your biggest problem in games isn't making mistakes. It's your negative response to making mistakes. Once you learn to stay positive and resilient, you'll perform much better in games.
Being positive is always an option.
Being calm is always an option.

Being hopeful is always an option.
Being unoffended is always an option.
Better thoughts are always available.
You just have to choose them.
Live intentionally.
