Bruins Season Odds
Do the Boston Bruins have another playoff run in them this season? Oddsmakers have established the Bruins’ odds to win the 2009 Stanley Cup at 25/1.
What’s key for the Bruins making the postseason again this year is that All-Star stopper Tim Thomas and captain Zdeno Chara return for season. But the offense must improve for this team to make a deep run this year, because as it stands now Boston’s O is the worst in the conference after finishing 24th in the league last year.
Getting center Patrice Bergeron back after he missed most of the 2007-08 season with postcussion issues is huge. But he must get help from the rest of his offensive mates like center Marc Savard and winger Marco Strum. Savard finished with 63 assists last year while Strum had 27 goals.

Oddsmakers from online sports book SBG Global have listed the Bruins’ odds to win the 2009 Stanley Cup at 34/1. Bodog has Boston at 25/1, while Sportsbook.com gives the Bruins a 40/1 shot.
This club made huge improvements last year by making the postseason, especially considering they failed to make the playoffs in the two previews seasons. And while their defense receives a major boost with Thomas and Chara returning, the offense must improve dramatically for this team to make a Stanley Cup run. Boston certainly has the goaltending and coaching to get things down this year – now they must go out and improve on their division-worst 206 goals. View the Bruins as a potential sleeper candidate in the Northeast.
