I friggen cried when Joe handed him the Cup to hoist. Ray, you DESERVED a Cup Run, I'm just glad it was to our team.

As a lifelong Bruins fan, it was so very sad to see Ray depart. Though I worked right across the way from City Hall and did go over to see him when he brought the Cup to town for a day. Great person and he earned that opportunity to play for a contender and win it all. Certainly Pierre built an amazing team, Sakic, Hejduk, Forsberg, Foote, Roy, Ray what a team. Took every last one of them to beat NJ.

Ray deserved this trade. As a lifelong Bruins fan, he had done everything and more for the Bruins franchise…he deserved this last shot at the Cup as the Bs floundered. Was so happy to see him get it, although a year later.

As a Hockey fan since the late 70's in Colorado, it was most definitely a special time to see Ray come to the Avalanche. And seeing him hoist the cup was the BEST, for arguably the best D'man in the league for many years on a Boston team that wasn't going anywhere.

To be easily remembered as a great player you have to be a good person Ray Bourque is another fine example of this

I thought he was going to Detroit for sure. Then come to find out-not only do they not get him-but we do!

Thank you for this! Amazing interview Meghan!

This is an awesome reflection from Ray the Great!!

Well done interview with one of my favourite players at the time. Glad he got won a cup to finish his career. Bourque is a class act.

It was bittersweet to see him leave Boston. Such a great guy who poured his heart and soul into the team.

Very good interview young lady! You definitely have an interesting future ahead. Keep being bold.

He had a great long career. Hard to believe that exactly as much time has passed since his retirement as he enjoyed being an active NHL player making a legendary career.

Awesome interview Meghan!

Class act!!

We wouldnt have won that cup without him!

Luv ya Ray and sincerely take care of yourself. The good life is treating you a little too good, I don't want to see you have troubles later.

I remember he once said he wants to retire as a Bruin. It was during the All-Star game in San Jose. Can’t believe he was later traded.

Bourque was a +4 in that Calgary game, along with 1 assist and 2 hits.

Ray looking like a wizard these days

I got to shake his hand when they Hosted a Golf Tournament in my Hometown Lachute, Quebec, Coach Bob Hartly grew up near by, I was a Huge Bruin Fan growing up, brought the Cup, some Hometown as Kevin Lowe so seeing Le Coupe Stanley was not new to us

Wtf man! As a Flyers fan I was wishing for this too happen back then! We would have won the cup that year!! Damn sucks for us😂

Second best defenceman of all time.

He looks like Benny Hill

Wow Ray... have another donut.

holy damn u changed lots since 2001, 23 years!

My childhood idol became a sell out Razor was the Bruins😢

im glad he didn't waste his time coming to philly. there would've been no cup to be had, except for the broken one from kicking himself in the balls for coming here. ironically tho he's starting to look like Eric Lindros in his older age. or maybe lindros is starting to look like him.

Ray looks like he’s been eating well in retirement. Top 10 all-time D man, possibly top 5. If anything he was underrated.

This guy a;ways h`as the most gnarly beard. It’s sos dense.

I wanted him to go to.the Wings. Glad he got the Cup anyway. And as a Bruins and Wings fan

Was also glad that Tanguay got the cup. Pronounced Tang Gway

Boston Bruins legend

he looks a bit like wiarton willy

Holy bee stings Batman! 🐝

Wow. He's a mess now. We said hello to him once while he was walking with a couple of other players near Buffalo's arena. He was a rude a-hole.

Pierre lacroix was married to Celine. Dion?

Man, its sad how these guys Bourque and Keith Tkachuk let themselves go.. Get healthy guys. You've got a ton of money.. stick around to enjoy it

Ray looks like he had put on a few pounds eh?

Shopping for a Stanley Cup ring.

Cripes! He looks terrible!

Not that kind of checking....Ray.

Looking more like Ray Pourque amirite?
