Prior to tonight's matchup against the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Boston Bruins will honour Nick Foligno on playing 1,000 NHL games.
Foligno played his 1000th game on March 15th when Boston visited the Chicago Blackhawks.
The Buffalo native was drafted by the Ottawa Senators with the 28th overall pick in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft.
Over the past sixteen seasons, Foligno has split his career with Ottawa (351 Games), Columbus (599 Games), Toronto (7 Games), and now Boston.
The ceremony comes on a perfect night as Foligno spent nine seasons with the Blue Jackets, where he captained the team for six.
In 1,006 career games, he has amassed 205 goals and 292 assists for a total of 497 points.
He has also appeared in 55 playoff games, where he has 9 goals and 14 assists.
