NHL team season
The 2011โ12 Boston Bruins season was the
88th season for the
National Hockey League franchise that was established on November 1, 1924.
[1] The Bruins entered the 2011โ12 season as the defending Stanley Cup champions.
Off-season
Veteran forward
Mark Recchi retired. Forward
Michael Ryder went to the
Dallas Stars via free agency, and defenseman
Tomas Kaberle went to the
Carolina Hurricanes . Forward
Benoit Pouliot was signed.
Regular season
The Bruins' opened the regular season with a home loss to the
Philadelphia Flyers , whom they had swept in round two of the
2011 Stanley Cup playoffs just five months earlier. They recorded their first regular season success against the
Tampa Bay Lightning on October 8, a 4โ1 home victory against their
2011 Conference Final opponents. The Bruins closed out the month of October with a home-and-home series defeat at the hands of their bitter rivals, the
Montreal Canadiens , en route to the worst start by a defending champion since the current playoff platform was adopted in
1994 .
[2]
[3] The back-to-back losses at the hands of their hated rivals proved the catalyst to a resurgence that saw the team secure at least a point in every game through November, the first time the franchise went undefeated in regulation for an entire calendar month since January 1969.
[4] During this run, defending
Vezina Trophy winner
Tim Thomas posted a 9โ0โ0 record and earned
First Star honors for the month.
[5]
With a win over the New York Islanders on March 31, the Bruins clinched an Eastern conference playoff berth. On April 1, the Bruins won the Northeast Division title by defeating the New York Rangers, 2โ1.
The Bruins allowed only one shorthanded goal all the season, the lowest total of all 30 teams.
[6]
Playoffs
The Boston Bruins qualified for the Stanley Cup playoffs for the fifth consecutive season. The Bruins lost in the first round to the
Washington Capitals in a seven-game series 4โ3.
