The team finished ninth in the Eastern Conference that year, failing to qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs for the second consecutive year, which was also the first time the team missed out on the playoffs in consecutive years since the 1965–66 season and 1966–67 season. It was also the first full season the Bruins were without longtime team captain Ray Bourque since the 1979–80 season, who would win the Stanley Cup as a member of the Colorado Avalanche at season's end and subsequently retire from the NHL. The Bruins tied the Carolina Hurricanes in points for the regular season at 88. However, Carolina had two more wins than the Bruins, leaving the Bruins in the ninth position in the conference, narrowly missing the playoffs. Boston was without starting goaltender Byron Dafoe for much of the season, and the Bruins had to use five goaltenders throughout the season. The good news is that the Bruins saw some of their young core mature further, as Joe Thornton set a then-career high in goals with 37, and Jason Allison once again broke the 30-goal plateau. Regular season Head coach Pat Burns was fired on October 25 and replaced by Mike Keenan.Bruins fire Burns; hire Keenan - UPI Archives https://www.upi.com/Archives/2000/10/25/Bruins-fire-Burns-hire-Keenan/6932972446400/ UPI April 18, 2023 October 25, 2000 Jason Allison was named Ray Bourque’s replacement as team captain on November 8.Jason Allison Named Captain of the Boston Bruins http://216.167.101.123/press/item/0,9140,252,00.html Boston Bruins May 4, 2023 https://web.archive.org/web/20010628060020/http://216.167.101.123/press/item/0,9140,252,00.html June 28, 2001 November 8, 2000 Final standings BOS BOS Schedule and results background:#fff;
