As some may have already heard, Cam Neely was named team president on Wednesday. Neely has had a key role in team operations for the past couple years and many would consider the promotion to team president a no brainer. One can tell just be listening to him talk on the radio every week that he's the type of person that really "gets it" when it comes to how a team should operate. He's worked with Peter Chiarelli and the general managing aspect of the bruins, the business side of things with Charlie Jacobs, as well as working on ways to improve the relationship between the club and the fans. Neely has played a major role in developing Milan Lucic, and teaching him the ins and outs of being a big man at the wing postion. He's not afraid to be blunt and call out the team or an individual player for that matter, when they are not playing to their full potential.

"I have known Cam since he was a player and have watched him grow and develop as a true leader with this team and the community,” said Bruins Owner Jeremy Jacobs. “Along with Harry Sinden, he is one of the most passionate men I have ever met when it comes to the Bruins. The President has the responsibility for carrying the torch of the team. I can't think of a more ideal person to pass the torch to than Cam Neely, the eighth President of the Boston Bruins."

"I am honored and proud to be named the eighth team President in Boston Bruins history today,” said Bruins President Cam Neely. “The last three seasons working in the Bruins front office has been an experience that I have truly enjoyed each and every day. We have made great strides as an organization in recent years both on and off the ice. But having said that, we understand much more progress can be made, and much more progress needs to be made if we are able to meet our ultimate objectives. As President, I embrace these challenges that lie ahead and look forward to taking this organization to new heights."
