Eleven 20 Goal Scorers - an NHL Record!!!

Wayne Cashman (24), Greg Sheppard (23), Park (22), Don Marcotte and Bob Miller (20 each)

The Bruins would wear Stall and Dean mesh jerseys during the 1977-78 season.

I believe the Bruins would only use one set of jerseys for both home (white) and road (black) throughout the season. Additionally, with the Stall and Dean sweaters, they can often appear to be reused for more than one season as many jerseys appear to be photo-matched to multiple seasons.
