Producing at close to a point-per-game pace to start the season, it was only a matter of time before Patrice Bergeron hit that nice, round number: 1,000 career points.
As it turns out, tonight was the night, as Bergeron recorded the 1,000th point of his storied NHL career with a secondary assist on a Brad Marchand goal.
The assist gave the Bruins a 4-1 lead, and sent the entire team out onto the ice to celebrate:
Bruins legend Patrice Bergeron earns career point No. 1,000 on this goal assist to Brad Marchand.
