The 2023–24 Boston Bruins season was the 100th season (99th season of play) for the National Hockey League franchise that was established on November 1, 1924.[2] The Bruins entered the season as the defending Presidents' Trophy winners, having finished the previous season with a 65–12–5 record that set the record for the most wins and points in an NHL season. Longtime Bruins players Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci retired during the off-season, with key players such as Tyler Bertuzzi, Connor Clifton and Dmitry Orlov also leaving during free agency and Taylor Hall departing via trade. Consequently, this was the Bruins' first season without Bergeron since 2002–03. The Bruins signed veteran free agents such as Kevin Shattenkirk and James van Riemsdyk, while also promoting youth talent in the form of John Beecher and Matt Poitras to the main roster. Brad Marchand was named the team's 27th team captain on September 20, 2023, succeeding Bergeron.[3]
