The Boston Bruins have been on a tear to start the 2019-20 season, and they’re inching closer to reaching more history.
Though 25 games, the Bruins sport a 17-3-5 record, giving them a league-best 39 points. It turns out only one other team in franchise history has had that many points over the same span, but you’ll need to go all the way back to 1929 to find that group.
The 1929-30 Bruins went 21-4-0 (42 points) through their first 25 games, the most in the organization’s history. The 2019-20 B’s come in just behind that historic group with their 17 wins, per NHL PR.
