Boston Bruins 2026-27 season outlook
Written 6 October 2026. David Pastrnak is Boston’s new captain. The Bruins gave him the C on 27 September, the first captain since Brad Marchand was traded to Florida in March 2025, and two nights later they opened the season with a 3-0 win over the Rangers.
Last season was a recovery. The Bruins went 45-27-10 for 100 points and took the East’s first wild card under Marco Sturm, before Buffalo beat them in six games. David Pastrnak had 100 points for a fourth straight season, and Morgan Geekie scored 39 goals.
That series still costs them. Charlie McAvoy was suspended for six regular-season games for slashing Buffalo’s Zach Benson in Game 6, so the top defenceman’s first possible game is 13 October at San Jose.
JJ Peterka, who scored 25 goals last season, arrived from Utah at the draft. Will Borgen came from the Rangers, Connor Clifton returned and Viktor Arvidsson left for Detroit. Jeremy Swayman, who started 55 games and saved .908, carries the net after Joonas Korpisalo went to the Rangers.
Patrice Bergeron’s No. 37 goes to the rafters on 1 December against Colorado. On Bet99’s July board the Bruins were +10000 for the Stanley Cup, joint 22nd of 32.
Boston Bruins schedule 2026-27
The next five Bruins games, the last five results and the full 84-game regular season, updated twice a day. Use the tabs to switch between them. Times are Eastern, TV is the Canadian broadcaster listed by the NHL, and “2nd night” marks the second game of a back-to-back. The Bruins play 14 back-to-backs this season, and September and October is the busiest stretch with 15 games.
Where to watch Bruins games in Canada
Counting the NHL’s own listings for the 84 regular-season games, 31 on TVA Sports, 18 on Sportsnet, 9 on Sportsnet One, 8 on Sportsnet+, 4 on Prime Video, 3 on Sportsnet 360 and 1 on TVA Sports 2. Regional listings add 3 on TSN5, 2 on TSN3, 2 on TSN2, 2 on RDS, 2 on RDS2, 2 on Sportsnet Pacific, 1 on TSN4 and 1 on Sportsnet West. 28 games have no Canadian network in the NHL’s listings. A game can appear on more than one channel, so the counts overlap, and listings change through the season.
Of the 28 games without a Canadian network, 24 are the Bruins’ US regional broadcasts and four are US national games. The Bruins’ regional games are on NESN in the US. In Canada, Rogers holds the out-of-market rights, so those games stream on Sportsnet+ Premium, which is sold on its own rather than through a TV package, and NHL Centre Ice through a TV provider is the other route. Blackouts apply.

Boston Bruins odds and how the market sees them
The Bruins markets with the most depth are the season-long futures: the Stanley Cup, the Eastern Conference, the Atlantic Division, a regular-season points total and a yes-or-no price on making the playoffs. On Bet99’s board on 30 July 2026 the Bruins were +10000 to win the Stanley Cup, joint 22nd of the 32 teams on the board, level with Pittsburgh, after a playoff season. Our Stanley Cup odds page carries the current prices for all 32 teams.
Three things move a Bruins price during the season. The starting goalie matters most, and the injury section above tracks him. The schedule is next: the Bruins play 14 back-to-backs, and second nights are where tired legs and backup goalies show up in the lines. Then there is form, which our power rankings measure each week, and the race itself in the playoff picture. Picks for the weekend slate are in our Saturday predictions column.

Boston Bruins history
The Bruins were the NHL’s first team based in the United States. Grocery magnate Charles Adams brought the league to Boston for 1924-25, general manager Art Ross chose the name, and on 1 December 1924 the club beat the Montreal Maroons 2-1 at the Boston Arena in the first NHL game played on American ice. With Eddie Shore on defence, Boston beat the New York Rangers for its first Stanley Cup in 1929. Two more followed. Goalie Frank Brimsek and the Kraut Line of Milt Schmidt, Woody Dumart and Bobby Bauer helped beat Toronto in the 1939 Final and sweep Detroit in 1941.
The next Cup took 29 years. Bobby Orr arrived in 1966, and a 1967 trade with Chicago brought Phil Esposito, who became the first NHL player to reach 100 points in a season. Orr’s overtime goal against St. Louis on 10 May 1970 completed a four-game sweep in the Final. Boston beat the Rangers in six games in 1972, and Orr was playoff MVP both times. Then came 39 years without a title. Captain Zdeno Chara, Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand and goalie Tim Thomas, the playoff MVP, ended the drought in 2011. That spring Boston won three Game 7s, the last 4-0 in Vancouver on 15 June 2011.
Boston lost the Final to Chicago in 2013 and to St. Louis in 2019. The 2022-23 team set NHL records with 65 wins and 135 points, then lost a seven-game first-round series to Florida. Bergeron retired that summer. The Bruins traded captain Brad Marchand to Florida in March 2025, missed the playoffs and hired Marco Sturm as coach. In 2025-26 they went 45-27-10 for 100 points and returned to the playoffs as the East’s first wild card. Buffalo beat them in six games.
Most famous player: Bobby Orr
Orr arrived in 1966, aged 18. He won the Calder Trophy as the league’s top rookie, then the Norris Trophy as its best defenceman in eight straight seasons, from 1968 to 1975. He is still the only defenceman to lead the NHL in scoring, which he did in 1970 and 1975. His 139 points in 1970-71 remain the league record for a defenceman, and his plus-minus of +124 that season is the NHL record.
In 1969-70 he won the Norris, Hart, Art Ross and Conn Smythe Trophies, the only player to take all four in one season, and his overtime goal on 10 May 1970 won the Cup. He was playoff MVP again in 1972. Knee injuries ended his career in 1978, two years after he left for Chicago as a free agent, and the Hockey Hall of Fame waived its waiting period to induct him in 1979, at 31. Ray Bourque holds the club records for games, assists and points.
Bobby Orr’s Bruins totals, from the NHL’s official statistics: 631 games, 264 goals, 624 assists and 888 points.
Stanley Cups
The Bruins have won six Stanley Cups: 1929, 1939, 1941, 1970, 1972, 2011. They have lost the Final 14 times since 1927, most recently in 2019.
