The Boston Bruins celebrated their 100th anniversary on Dec. 2, when they played their centennial game against the Montreal Canadiens, their longtime rivals. To mark the occasion, the team invited several players who left their marks in the history of the team. One of them was Johnny Bucyk, who played for the Bs from 1957 to 1978. Bucyk conducted the ceremonial faceoff, helped by Hall of Fame goaltender Ken Dryden (right) and current Bruins captain Brad Marchand (left). The Bruins defeated the struggling Canadiens 6-3.
