Despite predictions of a decline, the Bruins remain steadfast in their belief that they can contend for the Stanley Cup.
Newly appointed Bruins captain, Brad Marchand, expressed their determination, stating,
Marchand, stepping into Bergeron's shoes, is leading a team on a quest for resurgence. While they may not rewrite the record books, the Bruins remain a strong contender. Last season, players like David Pastrnak, Jake DeBrusk, Pavel Zacha, and Trent Frederic achieved career-high goal-scoring numbers and are set to assume even more prominent roles.
Acknowledging the irreplaceable nature of Bergeron and Krejci, Marchand stressed,
Boston's training camp revolves around creating these opportunities and preserving their reputation as one of the Atlantic Division's talent-rich teams.
Their primary goal isn't chasing regular-season records but securing a playoff berth, a lesson they learned from last season when a postseason ticket was all it took to make a run.
