Tyler Seguin Says He’ll ‘Be Very Disappointed’ If He Doesn’t Make Bruins Roster

NESN's Mike Milbury always knows how to ask the questions to which everyone is dying to hear the answers, and he spared no exception when talking with Bruins rookie Tyler Seguin on Thursday night.

Never one to beat around the bush, Milbury asked Seguin how he would feel if he didn't make the Bruins roster after all the hype surrounding his arrival in Boston.

"Obviously, if I don't make the team, I'll be very disappointed," Seguin said. "I'm very confident in my skills and abilities and I worked pretty hard in the offseason to get where I am today."

Just as he did with Nathan Horton, Milbury dished out advice about playing hockey in Boston to Seguin. The first-rounder said he was already impressed by the fan turnout for the two rookie games against the Islanders, and he's excited to be living and playing in a city that is so dedicated to its hockey.

"I've been greeted with great hospitality," Seguin said. "The fan base here is pretty incredible, you can see it in these preseason games when we have 14,000 fans coming out and supporting us like tonight."
