The Boston Bruins have named Ray Bourque as a consultant to the coaching staff.

Bourque will join the team at practice tomorrow at Ristuccia Arena in Wilmington at 11 a.m.

"Ray was a great player and a great Bruin and coach Mike Sullivan feels that he can add a lot to his staff," said general manager Mike O'Connell. "This was first brought up with Ray a couple of years ago right after he retired but Ray did not feel then that the time was right. Mike [Sullivan] and Ray have talked since that time and it is something they both feel will benefit our team. Ray will work with the team in practice in Boston two to four times a week and Mike Sullivan will decide how his role will evolve."

"Ray and I will talk about specifics as we go, but we certainly feel he can help us," said Sullivan. "He'll work with special teams and our defense. His presence can only bring positives to our team."
