The Boston Bruins have played in some of the NHL’s most iconic outdoor games—and won most of them. But which ones stood the test of time?

On today’s episode of Locked On Boston Bruins, host Ian McLaren ranks all five official outdoor games the B’s have played, from the snowy spectacle at Fenway in 2010 to the postcard-perfect (but fanless) showdown at Lake Tahoe. You’ll hear the story behind every win, every flop, and the unforgettable moments in between—including Marco Sturm’s overtime winner and fight in 2010... and his surprising return in 2025 as head coach of the Bruins.

Plus, we revisit a little-known 1956 outdoor exhibition in Newfoundland—the real first outdoor Bruins game.
