Boston Bruins to play 12 nationally televised games next season

Share

The bright lights of national television will be shining on the 2019-20 Boston Bruins as they vie for another shot at the Stanley Cup. 

The first time the Bruins will play on national TV will be on Saturday, October 26 in a rematch with the defending champions St. Louis Blues. The home game is sure to rile up Bruins fans and the remaining animosity between the teams will make for must-watch programming. 

The Blues matchup is the first of 12 nationally televised broadcasts, the sixth-most in the league. All national broadcasts will be aired on NBC or NBC Sports. Other dates to mark down on your calendars include a home matchup against the 2019 Western Conference finalist Dallas Stars on February 27 and a road tilt against last year's Presidents' Trophy winner Tampa Bay Lightning. 

Two other teams — the Nashville Predators and Washington Capitals — are tied with the Bruins with 12 national games. The five teams ahead of them include the Rangers (13), Blackhawks (14), Blues (15), Penguins (16) and, surprisingly, the Flyers (20).
