He and Terry O'Reilly and - of course - Ray Bourque were the quintessential Bruins' Bruins, as were Dallas Smith and - in his briefer time as a Bruin - Boston's favorite pahk, Brad Park. Scott Thornton and perhaps Brad Marchand would be the best current examples.Docnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28355714.post-54326198003432068762011-06-19T11:41:57.988-07:002011-06-19T11:41:57.988-07:00Cash was a great player, and is a great man.

The fun, the mischief,the big little kid at the bottom of the pile during a game of" keep away"....Wayne was great to all of us kids.My dad considered him a good friend. Over the years, we lost touch.<br /><br />I surprised my dad with tickets to a bruins/ flyers game the first year he was there. I called Wayne's office, left a message that we'd be there. Cash made a point to come out before the game to see him. It was like the old days, and no time had passed. <br />One of the best humans I have ever met.<br />So much class, even with a no BS attitude.Bambinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28355714.post-4453922353260646942011-05-02T18:54:07.553-07:002011-05-02T18:54:07.553-07:00I am and have always been a NY Rangers fan and bac...I am and have always been a NY Rangers fan and back then, I hated Wayne Cashman. Today I played golf with the Bruin great at Laurel Oak CC in Sarasota, Fl. and want to state that I have never met a gentleman like him. I can now say that I respect him and want to tell him that he was great to be with and would do so any time. It was an honor to play with him today and is one of the highlights of my life.Vinny T aka Claudduvalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28355714.post-43933443516575490112011-01-12T12:59:51.144-08:002011-01-12T12:59:51.144-08:00a very tuff and great player for boston for many y...a very tuff and great player for boston for many years did alot of the dirty work a true h.o.fer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28355714.post-25955848120166392672010-02-28T17:22:53.630-08:002010-02-28T17:22:53.630-08:00I loved this guy.

When we played hockey, all wanted to be Cashman.<br /><br />Wayne is reputed to have been pulled over on the North Shore, and held in jail. He was granted his one phone call, and made it.<br /><br />Some time later, as he waited in his cell a delivery man from a local Chinese restruant came in with "Order for Mr. Cashman."Hawknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28355714.post-50277142920178576112009-09-04T14:06:52.821-07:002009-09-04T14:06:52.821-07:00I remember one time when the Bruins were playing t...I remember one time when the Bruins were playing the Broad street bullies, Cashman was a wild man going after their goons in a brawl I always like his playing style and his heart.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04235358002099504256noreply@blogger.com
