Can the Boston Bruins 2025-26 Statistical Leaders Do It Again Next Season?

Morgan Geekie had a career season for the Boston Bruins in 2025-26, on top of having a career season in 2024-25 . He scored six more goals, had 15 more assists, and took an additional 31 more shots while helping lead the team that went from missing the Stanley Cup Playoffs a year ago to having the eight-best winning percentage.

Because he doesn’t turn 28 until July, the forward may be the perfect example of what a player in the prime of his National Hockey League career might ideally look like.

Can he do it again? Of course. As long as he can stay healthy there’s no reason to think Geekie won’t post comparable numbers next season, maybe better.

But can he lead the Bruins again in a couple of key statistical categories including goals scored? That might be more of a challenge.

Boston’s 2026-27 roster will be in flux throughout the offseason as the Bruins aim to go from being a playoff team to a legitimate contender. Fans can expect trades, movement in free agency and maybe even some activity with the NHL Draft as the franchise has five first-round selections over the next three years.

So there are obviously some variables that we can’t account for as things change. Nevertheless, the following is a look at 12 different statistical categories, who the top three players were this past season and our guess to the odds that the leader is able to repeat again next season.

You’ll definitely see some themes and a few changing expectations.

Note that we’re not including goaltenders as Jermey Swayman has been the clear starter since Linus Ullmark was traded to Ottawa in 2024, and the former Main Black Bear subsequently signed an eight-year, $66 million contract. He won 31 games last season to be named a finalist for the 2025-26 Vezina Trophy, awarded annually “to the goalkeeper adjudged to be the best at his position,” while notching a 2.71 goals-against average, a .908 save percentage and two shutouts.

Meanwhile, Joonas Korpisalo played in 31 games, with 28 starts, went 14-9, with a 3.15 GAA and
.894 save percentage. As long as Swayman is healthy, it’s doubtful that Korpisalo will challenge him as the statistical leader in any major category, plus Boston has to make a decision on whether to promote Michael DiPietro, the recipient of the Aldege “Baz” Bastien Award (AHL outstanding goaltender) this past season.

We’re also not doing defensive-players only statistics as currently there’s Charlie McAvoy (11 goals, 50 assists), and then everyone else. For exmaple, Mason Lohrei and and Hampus Lindholm finished tied for second with 26 points.
