Boston Bruins

On November 1, 1924, Vermont grocery-chain magnate Charles Francis Adams reportedly paid the NHL $15,000 for a franchise certificate granting him the league’s first team in the United States.⁠[1][2][2]

According to Art Ross’s later recollections, Adams wanted brown and gold colors and a fierce animal’s name. Bessie Moss, Ross’s secretary at his Montreal sporting-goods store, suggested “Bruins,” which was adopted. These colors matched those of Adams’s Brookside grocery stores.⁠[3][3][3][1]

Adams appointed Art Ross as both general manager and coach, while continuing as team president until 1936. Born in Naughton, Ontario, Ross was running a Montreal sporting-goods store when hired. His inventions included a beveled puck, a net designed to retain the puck rather than rebound it onto the ice, and a skate guard protecting the Achilles tendon.⁠[3][4][2][5][6][7]

The Bruins played their first NHL game at Boston Arena on December 1, 1924, defeating the Montreal Maroons 2–1 on goals by Smokey Harris and Carson Cooper. The victory proved a season highlight: Boston won only six of its 30 games, three at home and three away.⁠[8][9][10]

In 1926, Adams arranged a purchase of player contracts from the Western Hockey League, formerly the Western Canada Hockey League; the NHL took over the transaction. Boston gained new talent, including Eddie Shore from Edmonton’s team. Raised in Saskatchewan, Shore became a Bruins mainstay known for rushing the puck and physical play.⁠[11][11][11][12]

Boston finished second in 1926–27 and reached the Stanley Cup Final against Ottawa, then finished first in 1927–28. Shore set an NHL single-season record with 165 penalty minutes in 43 games in 1927–28. He formed a key defensive pairing with Lionel Hitchman, acquired from Ottawa in 1925.⁠[13][14][15][16][17]

Boston played its final game at Boston Arena on April 3, 1928, losing the concluding semifinal game 4–1 to the New York RangersNew York RangersThe New York Rangers are a professional ice hockey team based in New York City. They compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) and play at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan.Open the full entry. On November 20, it made its Boston Garden debut with a 1–0 home-opening loss to the Canadiens. An estimated 17,000 spectators crowded the new venue, breaking its doors in the rush to enter.⁠[18][19]

The Bruins finished first in the American Division in 1928–29 with a 26–13–5 record and won their first Stanley Cup. Lionel Hitchman captained the championship team.⁠[16][17][17]

The season also brought together the future Dynamite Line, with Cooney Weiland at center, Dit Clapper on the right and Dutch Gainor on the left. Goaltender Cecil ‘Tiny’ Thompson also made his Bruins debut that year.⁠[20][21][22]

In 1928–29, forward passing from the neutral zone into the attacking zone became legal. Ross advocated and rehearsed it.⁠[23][24]

In 1929–30, Boston finished 38–5–1 for a league-record 77 points, including a 14-game winning streak that remained an NHL record until 1982. The Dynamite Line of Weiland, Gainor and Clapper scored 102 of the team’s 179 goals. Weiland scored 43 goals in 44 games and led the league with 73 points.⁠[20][20][21][20]

During the playoffs on March 26, 1931, Ross replaced goaltender Tiny Thompson with an extra attacker, the first recorded use of the tactic.⁠[2]

On March 14, 1933, Boston won by forfeit against Chicago. The Bruins scored twice in the final five minutes to tie. When Eddie Shore scored the second goal, clocks disagreed: 20:00 versus later. Chicago coach Tommy Gorman protested, but the goal stood. After Marty Barry scored a disputed overtime goal, Gorman withdrew his team and Boston was awarded the win.⁠[25][25][25][24][25]

Charles Adams’s presidency ended in 1936, when his son Weston succeeded him.⁠[4][4]

The Bruins signed the small-statured Bobby Bauer in 1935; that year Bauer invited teammates Milt Schmidt and Woody Dumart to training camp. The trio formed a line with the Providence Reds in 1936–37 before becoming Boston’s Kraut Line, also known as the Kitchener Kids.⁠[26][27][2][28]

Frank Brimsek replaced Tiny Thompson as the starting goaltender in 1938–39. Thompson had considered retirement and recommended Brimsek in 1937; the original 1938 plan was to share the goaltending. After Thompson was injured, Brimsek won the opening two games; Thompson was then sold to Detroit for $15,000. Two separate runs of three consecutive shutouts earned Brimsek the nickname “Mr. Zero,” alongside the Calder Trophy as top rookie and the Vezina Trophy for goaltending.⁠[29][29][29][29]

Boston won its second Stanley Cup in 1939. Eddie Shore participated in the 1929 and 1939 championships, while Dit Clapper was the only Bruin on all three title teams of 1929, 1939 and 1941. In the first 15 seasons, 1924–25 through 1938–39, Boston finished first in its league or division eight times, reached four Finals and won twice. Among those who played or worked for the club during that period,27 later entered the Hockey Hall of Fame:23 players and four executives or coaches.⁠[12][30][31][32][33][17]

Eddie Shore was traded to the New York Americans on January 25, 1940, after announcing that he had bought the AHL’s Springfield Indians and would play only home games for Boston. Over 14 Bruins seasons, Shore earned seven First Team All-Star selections and four Hart Trophies as league MVP.⁠[34][35][12]

That season, Milt Schmidt led the league in scoring. Schmidt, Dumart and Bauer finished first, second and third, the first time players from the same team and forward line had occupied all three leading positions.⁠[27][27]

In 1940–41, Boston established a 23-game unbeaten streak comprising 15 wins and eight ties. It then swept Detroit in the Stanley Cup Final, the first four-game sweep in Final history, to win its third championship and second in three years.⁠[36][17][37]

From 1942–43 through 1966–67, the NHL consisted of the Boston Bruins, Chicago Black HawksChicago BlackhawksThe Chicago Blackhawks are a professional ice hockey team in the National Hockey League (NHL), competing in the Central Division of the Western Conference and playing home games at Chicago’s United Center. The franchise was admitted to the NHL on September 25, 1926, with Frederic McLaughlin credited as its founder. One of the NHL’s Original Six teams, it used the two-word spelling Black Hawks until 1986. The club has won six Stanley Cups, in 1934, 1938, 1961, 2010, 2013 and 2015.

This period, known as the Original Six era, lasted about a quarter of a century.⁠[38]

During World War II, Schmidt, Bauer and Dumart joined the Royal Canadian Air Force, while Brimsek and Roy Conacher also left for war service. Boston nevertheless reached the Stanley Cup Final again in 1943.⁠[39][40][37][28]

Willie O’Ree made his Bruins debut against the Montreal Canadiens on January 18, 1958, becoming the NHL’s first Black player. Across his 1957–58 and 1960–61 NHL stints, he played 45 games and recorded 14 points. He scored his first NHL goal on January 1, 1961, and also played 20 seasons in the minor leagues.⁠[41][41][42][43]

Boston missed the playoffs for eight consecutive years from 1960 through 1967, the longest such stretch in franchise history. Its 1966–67 record was 17–43–10.⁠[44][44]

Bobby Orr signed his first Bruins contract in September 1966 and won the Calder Trophy and Second Team All-Star honors the following season. Harry Sinden, who had coached the organization’s minor-league affiliate since 1961, became Boston’s head coach during the same period.⁠[45][46][47]

Milt Schmidt was appointed general manager at the end of 1966–67 and promptly completed one of the club’s biggest trades. Before the midnight trading deadline, he sent Pit Martin, Gil Marotte and Jack Norris to Chicago for Phil Esposito, Ken Hodge and Fred Stanfield.⁠[45][48][49]

Esposito and Hodge provided much-needed scoring depth. Alongside Orr’s two-way play and Sinden’s coaching, they helped build Boston into a leading team of the early 1970s. Esposito became the first NHL player to score 100 points in a season.⁠[50][47][51][48]

The NHL doubled in size for 1967–68. Six expansion clubs formed the West Division, while the Original Six teams made up the East Division.⁠[52][52]

In 1969–70, Orr became the only player to win the Norris, Hart, Art Ross and Conn Smythe trophies in the same season. After the Bruins and Rangers split the first four quarterfinal games, Boston won ten straight, advancing past Chicago and taking all four games of the Final against St. Louis.⁠[53][54][55]

Game 4 was played in Boston on May 10, 1970, and finished regulation tied 3–3. In overtime, Derek Sanderson passed to Orr, whose shot scored the winning goal. As the goal light came on, Orr flew through the air before landing amid the celebrating champions.⁠[50][50]

Boston finished 1970–71 with a 57–14–7 record and established 35 team and individual league records. Orr became the NHL’s first consecutive 100-point scorer. Esposito scored 76 goals and added 76 assists for 152 points, substantially raising the league scoring record. His line with Hodge and Wayne Cashman combined for 140 goals and 336 points.⁠[48][56][57][58][59][60][61]

The Bruins lost their quarterfinal series to eventual champion Montreal, so no Boston player won the Conn Smythe Trophy. In the regular-season awards, Orr won the Norris and Hart trophies, Esposito the Art Ross Trophy, and John Bucyk his first Lady Byng Trophy.⁠[62][62][58]

Boston lost only three playoff games in 1971–72, defeating Toronto 4–1 in the quarterfinals and sweeping St. Louis in the semifinals before facing the New York Rangers. A 3–0 victory in New York on May 11, 1972, secured its second Stanley Cup in three years. Orr again scored the winning goal and became the first two-time Conn Smythe Trophy winner. His 19 playoff assists set an NHL record, while his 24 points established a playoff record for defensemen.⁠[63][64][65][66]

Jeremy Jacobs bought the Bruins in 1975 from Storer Broadcasting, which had owned the club since 1973. He subsequently represented Boston on the NHL Board of Governors and served on its Executive Committee. He chaired the Board of Governors from 2007 to 2026.⁠[67][68][69][70]

On November 7, 1975, general manager Harry Sinden sent Esposito and Carol Vadnais to the New York Rangers for Brad Park, Jean Ratelle and Joe Zanussi, in a trade still regarded as one of the NHL’s largest. Park was a First Team All-Star in his first Boston season, while Ratelle revived his career, led the Bruins in scoring and won the Lady Byng Trophy.⁠[71][72][73][74]

Sinden completed another significant deal on May 26, 1976, exchanging Ken Hodge for the Rangers’ Rick Middleton. In 1976–77, The Sporting News named Sinden its NHL Executive of the Year and Boston returned to the Stanley Cup Final.⁠[72][75][76]

In 1986, Sinden traded Barry Pederson to Vancouver for Cam Neely and a 1987 first-round pick, later used to select Glen Wesley. Neely arrived in the June trade on his 21st birthday. Combining physical force and skill, the right wing inspired Sinden’s use of the term ‘power forward,’ which entered hockey’s vocabulary.⁠[77][78][79]

Reggie Lemelin, signed in 1987, and Andy Moog, acquired at the 1988 trade deadline, formed a strong goaltending tandem. The Bruins reached the Stanley Cup Final in both 1987–88 and 1989–90, losing each time to the Edmonton OilersEdmonton OilersThe Edmonton Oilers are a professional ice hockey team based in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. They compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) and play at Rogers Place downtown.Open the full entry. Terry O’Reilly coached the team from 1986 to 1989, including its 1988 Final appearance.⁠[80][81][82][83][77]

Boston also overcame its longtime playoff rival Montreal, winning series against the Canadiens in 1988, 1990, 1991 and 1992. The 1988 victory was its first playoff series win over Montreal since 1943.⁠[75]

Cam Neely scored 55 goals in 1989–90, then a franchise single-season record for a right wing. He added 51 in 1990–91, becoming the second Bruin to score 50 goals in consecutive seasons, and earned All-Star honors.⁠[84][84][84][85][77]

Boston returned to the Stanley Cup Final in 1990 but again lost to Edmonton. It reached the conference finals in both 1990–91 and 1991–92, losing each time to eventual champion Pittsburgh.⁠[86][77][75]

The Bruins’ final season at Boston Garden, 1994–95, was marked by tributes and farewells. Former Bruins and opposing stars participated in celebrations throughout the season, culminating in The Last Hurrah on September 26, 1995. Orr was the last player to skate a lap on the Garden ice.⁠[87][88]

The new arena opened on September 30, 1995, with a sold-out R.E.M. concert. The old Boston Garden had hosted five Bruins Stanley Cup championship teams.⁠[89][90]

The Bruins moved to the FleetCenter, now TD Garden, for 1995–96. Cam Neely scored a hat trick in the October 7 home opener. On October 17, a 7–4 win over St. Louis made Harry Sinden the first general manager to reach 1,000 victories.⁠[91][92][93][94][95]

Neely retired because of injuries in September 1996. The Bruins finished 1996–97 at 26–47–9, their first non-winning season and first absence from the playoffs since 1966–67. Their 29 consecutive playoff seasons constituted the longest such run in North America’s four major professional leagues. A last-place finish marked the start of a rebuild. During the season, Ray Bourque surpassed John Bucyk, Boston’s career scoring leader since 1967.⁠[96][77][97][98][95]

Bourque played his final Bruins game on March 4, 2000. He left as the franchise leader in games played, assists and points, with 18 First or Second Team All-Star selections and five Norris trophies. He was traded to Colorado, where he finished his career.⁠[99][95][100]

The Jacobs family established the nonprofit Boston Bruins Foundation in 2003 to support children in New England. It has raised more than $67 million. Charlie Jacobs is its founder and chairman.⁠[101][102][101]

After Bourque’s departure in 2000, Boston missed the playoffs for two seasons and then suffered three early playoff exits before the 2004–05 NHL lockout. In 2005–06, Patrice Bergeron became the youngest Bruin to score 30 goals in a season. The following offseason brought changes that would reshape the team.⁠[103][95][104][105]

Peter Chiarelli became general manager, and the Bruins signed two leading free agents, Zdeno Chara and Marc Savard. Chara served as captain from 2006 to 2020.⁠[106][104]

In June 2007, Chiarelli hired Claude Julien as head coach. With Bergeron, Chara and goaltender Tim Thomas forming a strong central core, Boston finished third in its division in 2007–08 and returned to the playoffs, losing to Montreal in seven games.⁠[107][108][105]

The Bruins won four division titles over the next six seasons. Their 53 wins and 116 points in 2008–09 brought Julien coach-of-the-year honors; the team recorded 54 wins and 117 points in 2013–14.⁠[107][105]

Neely became the eighth president of the Bruins on June 16, 2010, after three seasons as a vice president. He oversees both hockey and business operations. Across 15 completed seasons through 2024–25, Boston’s 676–347–135 record was the NHL’s best; the period included the 2011 Stanley Cup, nine 100-point seasons, five division titles and three Stanley Cup Final appearances.⁠[85][105][105][109]

Boston won its sixth Stanley Cup on June 15, 2011, fulfilling Jeremy Jacobs’s long-held ambition. The Bruins became the first team to win three Game 7s in one postseason. Chara captained the championship team and later led Boston to two further Stanley Cup Finals.⁠[110][105][106][111]

Sweeney became Boston’s eighth general manager on May 20, 2015, and the first former Bruins draft pick to hold the position. He had played 15 of his 16 NHL seasons for Boston.⁠[112][113][112]

He joined a leadership group headed by chief executive Charlie Jacobs and president Cam Neely. Chara and Bergeron remained central players, while goaltender Tuukka Rask had won the 2013–14 Vezina Trophy.⁠[112][114][115]

A 5–4 overtime win at Florida on March 7, 2016, moved Julien ahead of Art Ross as Boston’s leader in regular-season coaching victories. He already held the franchise playoff wins record. Through 2025–26, Julien remained first with 419 regular-season wins, followed by Ross with 387.⁠[116][116][116][117][118]

Boston retired O’Ree’s number on January 18, 2022, the anniversary of his 1958 NHL debut. O’Ree had served as the NHL’s diversity ambassador since 1998, received the Lester Patrick Trophy in 2003 and the Order of Canada in 2008, and entered the Hockey Hall of Fame in the Builder category in 2018.⁠[119][120][41][41]

The Bruins set NHL single-season records with 65 wins and 135 points in 2022–23. David Pastrnak scored 61 goals, becoming the second Bruin after Phil Esposito to reach 60, and was a Hart Trophy finalist. His 13 game-winning goals led the league.⁠[121][121][121]

During Sweeney’s tenure, Boston won two Presidents’ Trophies. His peers voted him the NHL’s general manager of the year for 2018–19.⁠[122][123]

Sturm became the 14th former Bruin to coach the club on June 5, 2025. He had been an assistant with the Los Angeles KingsLos Angeles KingsThe Los Angeles Kings, also known as the LA Kings, are a professional ice hockey team based in Los Angeles, California.

San Jose selected Sturm 21st overall in the 1996 NHL Draft. He joined Boston in a November 2005 trade and scored the overtime winner in the 2010 Winter Classic.⁠[126][127][125]

The Bruins retired Chara’s number on January 15, 2026, after just three complete seasons had elapsed since his last NHL game. His 14 years as Boston’s captain constituted the second-longest captaincy in franchise history. He won the 2008–09 Norris Trophy, earned seven NHL All-Star Team selections and was inducted into both the Hockey Hall of Fame and the IIHF Hall of Fame in 2025.⁠[128][106][106][129][106][130]

Buffalo defeated Boston 4–1 at TD Garden in Game 6 on May 1, 2026, winning its first playoff series since 2007. The Bruins had qualified as the Eastern Conference’s first wild card. Their 29 regular-season home wins tied Carolina for the NHL lead, but they lost all three home games in the series. Pastrnak scored Boston’s goal in the second period, and Jeremy Swayman made 22 saves.⁠[131][132][133][134][135]

Boston named Pastrnak its 28th captain on September 27, 2026. Selected 25th overall in the 2014 draft, he was entering his 13th NHL season, having played all 833 of his NHL games for Boston and recorded 420 goals, 513 assists and 933 points. His 29 goals and 71 assists in 77 games during 2025–26 gave him 100 points for a fourth consecutive season.⁠[136][136][136][136][137][138][139]

Boston opened the season at TD Garden on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, with a 3–0 victory over the New York Rangers. Swayman made 24 saves for his 19th career shutout. Fraser Minten, JJ Peterka and Mark Kastelic scored within 1 minute 15 seconds late in the third period, with Kastelic scoring into an empty net.⁠[140][141][141][141][141][141]

Peterka made his Bruins debut on the top line with Pastrnak and Elias Lindholm. Boston had acquired him from Utah on June 26 in exchange for the 23rd pick in the 2026 draft and a conditional 2028 first-round pick.⁠[142][143][140]
