Breaking Down the Boston Bruins’ January 2026 Schedule
The Boston Bruins are preparing for a busy stretch in January under first-year head coach Marco Sturm. After closing December with a trip to Western Canada and facing the two-time defending Western Conference champion Edmonton Oilers, the Bruins begin the new year on the road against a familiar face — former teammate Jake DeBrusk and the Vancouver Canucks.
This season’s schedule is especially tight due to the Olympic break in February, which makes every month leading up to the playoffs even more demanding. January will provide a tough test but also an important opportunity for the Bruins to gain ground before the February pause.
