Bob Sweeney excited for Winter Classic Alumni opportunity

Playing in six seasons with the Boston Bruins in the late 80’s and early 90’s, Bob Sweeney has played in his fair share of games against the Montreal Canadiens.

Growing up in Concord, Massachusetts and then playing colligate hockey at Boston College, Sweeney’s roots in Boston run deep and he is very familiar with hockey’s most historic rivalry

A new chapter will be added to the history of the Bruins and Canadiens rivalry later this week when the two Atlantic Division rivals meet in the 2016 Winter Classic. But before the current Bruins and Canadiens drop the puck on an extremely important game, a few familiar faces will battle it out.
