The Boston Bruins entered the 2025-26 season looking to move forward after retooling the roster at the trade deadline back in March and in free agency in the summer. So far this season, the Bruins are hanging in there in terms of the playoff picture.
Entering Nov. 26, the Bruins are 13-11-0 through 24 games, and hold the second Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. That's good, but the issue is that the Eastern Conference is so wide open. The Bruins may hold a playoff spot, but they have eight teams within five points of taking it away for them.
