Bruins unveil new bronze bear statue to commemorate 100 years of hockey in Boston

Bobby has some company on Causeway Street.

Just down the block from where a leaping Bobby Orr is emblazoned in bronze, the Bruins unveiled another commemorative statue to honor a century of hockey in Boston.

Ahead of Sunday’s Centennial Game against the Montreal Canadiens, the Bruins showcased a new bronze statue of a roaring bear — a monument crafted to embody the passion and ferocity that has been woven into the fabric of the Original Six franchise since its inception in 1924.

“The Boston Bruins are not just a hockey team,” Bruins captain Brad Marchand said Saturday during the unveiling ceremony.
