The Boston Bruins exceeded expectations this season despite losing key players. Young contributors stepped up, signings played above expectations, and the team competed for the President’s Trophy. With major offseason decisions ahead, the Bruins have limited draft capital but plenty of options.

The team’s success was unexpected but instilled pride in the fanbase and locker room, despite falling short in the postseason. The Bruins will need to address top-tier goal-scoring, center options, and defense in the offseason. Many free agents and restricted free agents are in the mix, leaving the team with multiple paths to consider.
