(Photo: Bridget Samuels/Ikeastan) After what was a great run in Boston, it's time for the Thomas era in Boston to come to an end.

In life all great things must come to an end, and that statement is certainly true in professional sports. As much as we don’t want it to happen athletes come and go, and for the Bruins, and Tim Thomas, it’s finally time for Thomas to move on.

Now before you curse me, call me a fool, or stop reading this article, please just hear me out.

This thought has nothing to do with the White House. Nothing to do with Thomas saying they, their, me, I, we, us or anything like that in a post game interview. Nothing to do with Thomas walking across the Bruins logo—an unwritten rule in the Bruins locker room—. Nothing to do with what type of soda Thomas drinks, what flavor ice cream Thomas orders, or what TV shows Thomas has on his DVR, this is strictly about hockey, and about what’s best for the Boston Bruins.

The Bruins are set to open up camp in a few weeks and begin the defense of their Stanley Cup Title; they will do so without star center Marc Savard.

Yesterday Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli made the announcement that Savard would miss the entire 2011-12 season due to post-concussion syndrome that he is still suffering from. It’s very likely that Savard’s career sadly may be over.

“Marc Savard won’t play this year; nothing has changed in our monitoring. He’ll be examined and he’ll be declared unfit to play” said Chiarelli.
