The Boston Bruins have appointed Joe Sacco as interim head coach following the dismissal of Jim Montgomery after a disappointing 8-9-3 start to the season. Sacco, who has been with the Bruins since 2014, is expected to leverage his extensive experience to steer the team back on track.
General Manager Don Sweeney and President Cam Neely expressed confidence in Sacco's ability to meet the team's high standards. However, with the Bruins' playoff aspirations at stake, Sacco's tenure may be closely monitored.
Potential candidates for a permanent coaching position include David Carle, Gerard Gallant, Todd McLellan, and Jay Pandolfo, each bringing unique coaching backgrounds and successes.
