BOSTON (AP) Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron, recovering from his second concussion in 14 months, said Friday he is symptom-free and vowed to return to the ice this season.

Bergeron, who missed the final 72 regular-season games and last season's playoffs after an Oct. 27, 2007, hit from behind into the boards by Philadelphia's Randy Jones, was injured again Dec. 20 when he checked Carolina's Dennis Seidenberg at center ice.
