Proving once and for all that he’s over the bitter divorce from the Boston Bruins three years ago, Tyler Seguin sent out a pro-Bruins tweet on Friday night while watching the Bruins battling for their playoff lives in St. Louis. Clearly Seguin had a Central Division agenda in hoping the Blues would lose the late regular season game, but the former Bruins star sent out a tweet supporting the B’s in the third period of their white knuckle 6-5 win over a hard-to-kill St. Louis club at Scottrade Center.
Seguin is, of course, on the shelf with an Achilles tendon injury at the moment and unable to help the Stars on the ice. So instead the 24-year-old sent out the pro-Bruins tweet cheering on former teammates like Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron, Zdeno Chara, Tuukka Rask and David Krejci among others.
It might have been “weird” in the words of Seguin rooting for a Bruins win, but it ended up being just the good luck charm that Boston needed on a night they required all the help they could get against the Blues.
