The 1931–32 Boston Bruins season was the Bruins' eighth season in the NHL. The team finished fourth in the division, out of the playoffs for the first time since the 1925–26 season.
Regular season
In the course of playing a 0–0 tie against the New York Americans on January 3, 1932, the Bruins shot the puck the length of the ice 87 times to relieve pressure on their goal. To stop this becoming a regular tactic, the icing rule was introduced into the NHL later in the decade.
