BOSTON -- As the Boston Bruins prepare to host the Montreal Canadiens in the 2016 Winter Classic on New Year's Day at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, Hall of Famer Cam Neely is dusting off his skates, getting them sharpened -- and loading up on Advil.
The last time No. 8 played was during the alumni game at the 2010 Winter Classic at Fenway Park. A big reason he's playing on Thursday is because of the opponent. Any chance he has to beat the Canadiens, he'll do whatever it takes, even though his knees are telling him not to.
