Patrice Bergeron was actually held point-less in two straight games before last week began.
That slump didn’t last long.

As part of their celebration of “Mo-vember” Bruins forwards Patrice Bergeron and Benoit Pouliot visited adult patients at the Yawkey Center for Cancer Care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute today.
This post is part of a series looking back at the top 10 games of the Bruins’ 2010-11 regular season.
Entering the 2010-11 season, Patrice Bergeron was thinking about an offensive outburst, the likes of which Boston hadn’t seen for a few years since he suffered a severe concussion in October 2007.
After he decided to give up his right to potentially become an unrestricted free agent nine months early last fall, Patrice Bergeron knew he was going to have to live up to his new $5 million-per-year contract, even if it wasn’t scheduled to start until the 2011-12 season.
VANCOUVER — The mild cut he’s sporting on the top of his right index finger is Bruins center Patrice Bergeron’s latest battle scar from the 2011 Stanley Cup Final.
VANCOUVER — Regardless of how many times Patrice Bergeron comes back to Vancouver and what’s now called Rogers Arena, the city and building will always hold a special place in his heart.
TAMPA — Late in the first period yesterday, with the Bruins still down just two goals, Brad Marchand’s shot deflected off a Tampa Bay stick to a wide open Patrice Bergeron in the slot.
TAMPA — Some players would need to slowly ease back into the lineup after missing two weeks with a concussion.
Not Bruins center Patrice Bergeron.
TAMPA – There was Victor Hedman, again, the Tampa Bay defenseman who threw one of the two hits that eventually sidelined Pittsburgh Penguins superstar Sidney Crosby indefinitely earlier this season with a concussion.
TAMPA — Bruins head coach Claude Julien said that if Patrice Bergeron was in the warm-up tonight before Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final at the St. Pete Times Forum, the center would play.
Well, he took the ice for the warm-up.
TAMPA — There’s a strong chance Patrice Bergeron will return to the Bruins’ lineup tonight one day shy of two weeks since he suffered a concussion against Philadelphia.
TAMPA — Bruins head coach Claude Julien wouldn’t commit one way or the other on Patrice Bergeron’s status for tonight’s Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final at the St. Pete Times Forum.
Throughout the Bruins-Lightning Eastern Conference Final, TheBruinsBlog.net will collaborate on Q&A features before every game with Jon Jordan 0f Beasts of the Southeast over at Kukla’s Korner. Here’s the latest installment, where I respond to inquiries about Tyler Seguin, Patrice Bergeron and Nathan Horton.
Taking care of my 7-month-old and traveling to Tampa today cut me out of the popular parlor game “guess which Bruins player sits after Patrice Bergeron returns.”
So forgive me for catching up with that now.
