Andrew Ference Appreciation

USA TODAY Sports

Andrew Ference's return to the Garden today reminded us all how great of a teammate and person he was, and how much we miss him. He received a tribute on the Garden scoreboard that NESN couldn't be bothered to show us.





(All four GIFs were found here.)

NESN showed some highlights of his greatest moments sticking up for teammates, noting that even after there was a dispute between he and Mark Recchi in regards to the NHLPA, he didn't hesitate to come to the rescue after a dirty hit by David Backes.

Here are GIFs of some of the best Ference moments as a Bruin.



Probably the most memorable, of course. (Credit.)

Here, he talks about winning the Cup and holds back tears. I am unable to do the same.

We love and miss you forever Ference
