Generous Greg & Bratty Brad

Look at what the Boston Bruins webmaster (webmestre?) 
and social media coordinator 
has shared regarding the B's off-season 
caritas (charitable) activities...


Three things the share failed to, er, share: 
who is Pete Frates... what is ALS...
and who could it be, among the B's, 
that Gregory Campbell aka Soupy 
would have thought of, first, 
to extend this offer to...?

Pete Frates is a former Boston College 
baseball player who is actually 
plagued with the disease now.

ALS is better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease.

And the attempt at keeping a veil of mystery 
shrouding the identity of the player 
whom ''Soupy'' challenged was...
surely on purpose 
but everyone knew who it was,
already!

Brad Marchand - aka Marchy -
not only accepted the challenge 
(and delivered proof, too - 
but passed it on to several more 
genuinely kind-hearted guys: 
teammates Torey Krug and Chris Kelly 
as well as the AHL's Andrew Bodnarchuk 
and his own brother Jeff Marchand.

ALS doesn't stand a chance 
when the Bruins 
are involved!

This just goes to show, 
once again, 
that the Boston Bruins 
are a tremendous bunch 
of genuine good guys 
- no matter what some may say!

Meanwhile, 
Gregory Campbell's lookalike, 
Graham DeLaet, 
is raising man's awareness 
of Dove for Men products 
first and foremost.

It just speaks for itself.

None of the gentlemen involved
are veritable ''doves'' however -
not even the cartoon character there...

But that's another story.
