They really need to call this the Bear Hug.

[@cel101278]

They do. There’s even a shirt with them hugging and it says Bear Hug.

Best pair in hockey three years running, so...

As a New Jersey Devil's fan, the best part of the Bruins used to by Ray B for many years and hated the rest of the team. But these two show up for each other in the toughest position on the ice and is great to see an honest friendship from a far.
And, it's okay to be jealous because not many people have those types of friends.

[@cel101278]

I know they can’t play together forever but I hope they’re a duo for at least one more year. I know Ullmark’s contract is up after 24-25. I want Ullmark to retire a Bruin but I’m probably dreaming. I know these guys will be friends forever even when they’re done playing together.
