Boston Bruins season preview
Many changes have been made to the structure of the Boston Bruins lineup after their historic 2022-23 season, which ended in a massive playoff disappointment. It’s going to be very difficult to replicate an NHL record-setting regular season of 135 points (65-12-5), but the Bruins will battle their way back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs in the spring of ‘24. It won’t be easy in the Atlantic Division, but this team will compete like they always do.

Offense
The B’s made a ton of moves this offseason, especially to their group of forwards, as they said goodbye to legendary Patrice Bergeron. They also lost Taylor Hall, Tyler Bertuzzi, Nick Foligno, and Garnet Hathaway. So, it’s safe to say that the second-best offensive team in the NHL last season is going to look a little different upfront in 2023-24.
This will certainly not be the same team we saw last season, but the Bruins still have their two leading scorers from last season in David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand. They can always be counted on to provide offense, but now that the Bruins have lost their top two centers, the middle of the ice is a concern for this team. The Bruins should be a middle-of-the-pack offensive team this season.
