The Boston Bruins are focused on returning to Stanley Cup contention. However, they may be parting ways with interim coach Joe Sacco. During their end-of-season press conference on Wednesday, Cam Neely and Don Sweeney were backed by Charlie Jacobs as the right leadership to steer the franchise back to glory.
“I’m proud to sit alongside these two gentlemen because I know we have the right people in the right seats on the bus to bring this franchise back to glory,” Jacobs said.
Despite the team’s struggles, Neely and Sweeney remain confident in their vision.
The season was marked by significant moves. Jim Montgomery was fired on Nov. 19 and key players such as captain Brad Marchand and longtime Bruins like Charlie Coyle and Brandon Carlo were traded. Their trade signaled a potential retooling of the roster. The team acknowledged that the current mix was underperforming.
While they plan to rebound quickly, the process begins with finding a new head coach.
