A post shared by Bruno Gervais (@brunogervais)

Bruno Gervais was born on 3rd October 1984 in Longueuil, Quebec, Canada. While growing up, the 40 year-old was the shy type, his parents had to enroll him into hockey to take care of that timidity.

He was not comfortable on the first day he played on the ice, and he even cried. Despite this, his parents didn’t stop bringing him to the arena. Hence, he developed a liking for the game. More importantly, he preferred to skate backward, and his mother, Hélène Feeley sees it as a defensive quality.

She said he was born to be a defender, having seen him a couple of times behind the goalie trying to stop the pucks.

How Rich Is He?

The Longueuil-born former defenceman earned quite decently from his former ice hockey career and now as a sports analyst. During his ice hockey playing days, he first signed a three-year contract with the New York Islanders for a reported fee of $2.22 million in July 2008. This saw him receiving an average salary of $740,667 annually until he was traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning in July 2011. The club went on to sign him on a one-year contract.

After his contract expired, Philadephia Flyers signed him as a free agent for two years in a deal worth $1.65 million in 2012. For the two years he spent at the club, his annual salary was roughly $825, 000.

As for his current job with RDS, no one knows how much he exactly earns as salary, likewise his net worth. Nevertheless, his net worth shouldn’t be below $5 million.
