Patrice Bergeron spending every Friday on the ice with a group of friends and former NHL players in the Boston area sparked some online chatter last week that the former Bruins captain might be planning a dramatic return.

That, however, is not in the cards.

\"No, it is not happening,\" Bergeron said in an interview with The Canadian Press. \"I\'m not making a comeback, not trying to make a comeback.\"

Bergeron said anyone watching the skates would know there\'s no truth to the comeback rumors.

\"It\'s a slow pace,\" he said with a laugh.
