The Boston Bruins face a crucial off-season with tough decisions looming and a challenging path to constructing a championship-caliber roster for the upcoming campaign.

With over 10 free agents, including key players like Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci, the Bruins must navigate limited salary cap space and a dearth of draft picks. As fans prepare for the off-season, several key dates deserve their attention.

The NHL Scouting Combine, taking place from June 4 to June 10 at Buffalo's HarborCenter, offers teams a close look at top prospects.

On June 26, the NHL Awards in Nashville will recognize Bruins' excellence, with finalists such as Bergeron, Linus Ullmark, David Pastrnak, and coach Jim Montgomery.

The NHL Draft on June 28-29 presents a challenge for Boston, lacking early-round picks.

Free agency begins on July 1, but the Bruins' restricted cap space may lead them to seek roster changes through trades rather than big-name signings. With an eye on the future, the Bruins must rely on their scouting staff to excel in the coming years to replenish their prospect pool.
