This Day in Boston History
November 20th, 1928
Bruins Play First Game in Boston Garden
|
On
this day the Boston Bruins played to a 1-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens
in the first game at their new home, the Boston Garden. This would be
a landmark year for the five-year-old franchise, which was the first American
team in the NHL.
Pictured here, the "Dynamite Line" of Cooney Weiland, Dit Clapper,
and Dutch Gainor was the core which would lead the team to capture the
American Division that year, and on to the Stanley Cup.
The B's would go on to win the first of what to-date has been five Stanley
Cups, and become one of the most storied teams in NHL history.
