Bruins 365
Daily Stories from the Ice
Now you can cheer for the Bruins every day of the year.
The Boston Bruins are America’s oldest NHL team, so there’s no shortage of history with this storied franchise. For many, the Bruins have come to personify hard-nosed hockey, and while the team has evolved over the years, that tough approach to the game has been woven into the fabric of the team and embodied by its players.
While the Bruins’ stronghold is unquestionably in New England, they have supporters around the world, particularly in small Canadian towns where many of the club’s early players hailed from. And even if you don’t love the Bruins, you probably hate them. The club has been part of some of hockey’s fiercest rivalries from the Habs to the Leafs to the Canucks.
With Bruins 365, you can relive some of those memorable moments from more than a century of Bruins hockey. Filled with 366 short stories, one for every day of the year, from the team’s origins in 1924 to Bobby Orr’s gravity-defying championship-clinching goal in 1970 to its shocking first-round playoff exit in 2023, Bruins 365 has something for every Boston fan.
