Marc Savard is one of the Bruins' biggest offensive threats when healthy. But before he brought his talents to Boston as a free agent in 2006, he was tearing it up in Atlanta.

Savard holds the Thrashers' single-season franchise record for assists with 69 in 2005-06. He also added 28 goals that season, putting his point total at 97.

Savard's 97 points were second on the team behind Ilya Kovalchuk, who tallied 98. Marian Hossa also racked up 92 points that season, and the Thrashers finished sixth in the NHL in goals with 276.

The Thrashers made the postseason just once in their 11-year history, though, and they've since moved to Winnipeg and have become known as the Jets.

For a select amount of Bruins games this season, NESN and The Four's will be teaming up to offer B's fans the chance at winning a $50 gift card to The Four's Restaurant and Sports Bar by simply answering a trivia question found at NESN.com/thefours. Questions will be posted at noon on the day of a Bruins home game, unless otherwise noted.
