The Boston Bruins had a great 2008-09 season, winning the Northeast Division and finishing the season with the best record in the Eastern Conference, though the Hurricanes knocked them out of the playoffs in the semifinals. Eager for a shot at The Cup, the Bruins filled the need for a puck-moving defenseman by signing veteran Derek Morris, who’ll join Andrew Ference, Matt Hunwick, Mark Stuart, Dennis Wideman and Norris Trophy winner Zdeno Chara, creating a formidable lineup. Though Phil Kessel was traded to the Maple Leafs for three future draft picks (two in 2010 and one in 2011), a healthy Marco Sturm is expected to fill the void. The 2009-10 season may be the one that brings The Cup back to Beantown, and there’s just no substitute for seeing it go down live. Get your tickets to TD Garden and watch the Bruins dominate in 2009!

Founded before the 1924-25 season, the Bruins became just the second American team to win the Stanley Cup in the 1928-29 season on their way to establishing a legacy as one of the premier hockey teams in the history of the NHL. The Bruins have had some of the NHL's best players lace up the skates, including Hall of Famers Bobby Orr, Phil Esposito, and Ray Bourque. In their long history, the Bruins have hoisted the Stanley Cup five times. They are now looking to bring the Cup back for the first time in over 30 years.
