In regards to the Bruins' roster heading into next season, not much has changed, but home games will still have a very different feel.

Legendary anthem singer Rene Rancourt retired at the end of last season after being the Bruins' anthem singer for over 40 years. Now, the franchise is without an anthem singer, but they're doing something unique to find the next Rene Rancourt.

Bruins announce that the 2018-19 season will be a Bruins Idol of sorts with a number of singers auditioning thru the year to be Rene Rancourt’s successor singing the US and Canadian anthems prior to B’s home games

You'd think auditions would be held during the offseason, but this way the Bruins can get a look at each singer in the environment he or she would have to perform in every single night.
