The Boston Bruins are a professional ice hockey team based in Boston. The Bruins compete in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Atlantic Division in the Eastern Conference. The team has been in existence since 1924, making them the third-oldest active team in the NHL.

The Bruins have won numerous team honors. The team has captured the O'Brien Cup as championship runner-ups in 1938 and 1950. They have achieved 18 Prince of Wales Trophies—seven as American Division champions, three as regular season champions, three as East Division champions, and five as Eastern Conference champions. They have won six Stanley Cups in 1929, 1939, 1941, 1970, 1972, and 2011. They have won four Presidents' Trophies as regular season champions in four seasons—1989–90, 2013–14, 2019–20, and 2022–23.

The Bruins have also won many individual awards. Legendary defenseman Bobby Orr is the team's most decorated player, with eight James Norris Memorial Trophy wins, three Hart Memorial Trophy wins, two Conn Smythe Trophy wins, two Art Ross Trophy wins, a Calder Memorial Trophy win, and a Ted Lindsay Award, for a total of 17.

12 players have had their numbers retired by the Bruins. Lionel Hitchman's number 3 was the first in 1934. Eddie Shore's number 2 and Dit Clapper's number were retired in 1947. Bobby Orr's number 4 was retired in 1979, followed by Milt Schmidt's number 15 and Johnny Bucyk's number 9 in 1980. Phil Esposito's number 7 was retired in 1987. Ray Bourque's 77 was retired in 2001, Terry O'Reilly's 24 was retired in 2002, and Cam Neely's number 8 was retired in 2004. Rick Middleton's number 16 was retired in 2018, and Willie O'Ree's number 22 was retired in 2022. 58 players have been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame following play with the Bruins. Players like Bourque, Esposito, and Orr have been inducted as players, while O'Ree and Charles Adams, first owner of the Bruins, have been inducted as builders.

Internally, the Bruins have five team awards. The Eddie Shore award is given to the player "demonstrating exceptional hustle and determination." The Elizabeth C. Dufresne Trophy is a given to the player who is "most outstanding in home games." The John P. Bucyk Award, is given for "charitable and community endeavors." The Seventh Player Award is given to the player who "performed beyond expectations." The Three Stars Award is given to the players with the most three stars of the game honors.

All-Star Game selections

[edit]

The National Hockey League All-Star Game is a mid-season exhibition game held annually between many of the top players of each season. Sixty-four All-Star Games have been held since 1947, with at least one player chosen to represent the Bruins in each year. The All-Star game has not been held in various years: 1979 and 1987 due to the 1979 Challenge Cup and Rendez-vous '87 series between the NHL and the Soviet national team, respectively, 1995, 2005, and 2013 as a result of labor stoppages, 2006, 2010, and 2014 because of the Winter Olympic Games, and 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[39] Boston has hosted two of the games. The 24th took place at the Boston Garden and 46th took place at TD Garden, then known as the FleetCenter.

All-Star benefit games

[edit]

Prior to the institution of the National Hockey League All-Star Game the league held three different benefit games featuring teams of all-stars. The first was the Ace Bailey Benefit Game, held in 1934, after a violent collision with Boston's Eddie Shore left Ace Bailey of the Toronto Maple Leafs hospitalized and unable to continue his playing career.[117] In 1937 the Howie Morenz Memorial Game was held to raise money for the family of Howie Morenz of the Montreal Canadiens who died from complications after being admitted to the hospital for a broken leg.[118] The Babe Siebert Memorial Game was held in 1939 to raise funds for the family of the Canadiens' Babe Siebert who drowned shortly after he retired from playing.[119]

Retired numbers

[edit]

The Boston Bruins have retired twelve of their jersey numbers, beginning with Lionel Hitchman's #3, the first jersey in NHL history (and the second in North American sports history) to be retired. Also out of circulation is the number 99 which was retired league-wide for Wayne Gretzky on February 6, 2000.[203] Gretzky did not play for the Bruins during his 20-year NHL career and no Bruins player had ever worn the number 99 prior to its retirement.[204][205]
