Just mentioning the date is enough to make many Bruins fans stop in their tracks and wax nostalgic about the days of Rich Peverley, Chris Kelly and pre-economic anxiety Tim Thomas.
It’s a date that sits atop the list of life highs of every Bruins fan, just ahead of “birth of first child” and slightly behind “Bruins draft David Pastrnak.”
It’s a date that is tattooed on bodies, engraved in stone and plastered on t-shirts across New England.
And if a new report is to be believed, it’s a date that could be wiped from the history books.
