The Bruins got a grand sendoff from fans outside TD Garden Monday afternoon before boarding their flight to Vancouver for Games 1 and 2 of the Stanley Cup finals, which begin Wednesday at the Rogers Centre. "You can feel, you can sense that the whole city is behind us and they've been like that all playoffs," Patrice Bergeron said. "It's great. Obviously Boston is such a sports town and to bring back, I guess the hockey fans and us into it, is something that I'm very proud of." Tim Thomas echoed Bergeron's sentiments, but acknowledged their ultimate goal had not yet been reached. "It's great and it's where you've wanted to be and you, well what I've worked for my whole life, you know to get to this point in the Stanley Cup," Thomas said. "And so it's a big accomplishment. But you don't dream of getting to the Stanley Cup finals, you dream of winning the Stanley Cup. So there's still more work to be done."
