Blues fire HC Drew Bannister; hire Jim Montgomery as new HC

Feel bad for Bannister but enjoy this simply for the vibes.

More drama = more entertainment.

Don't think the Blues are paying 3 coaches. Thought usually a coach's contract ended when they signed with a new team (Toronto in this case). Could be wrong, but I thought that was the norm. This would also relate to Monty's term (if he leaves before 5 years probably wouldn't be unemployed long so ownership wouldn't be paying him not to coach long either). Unless I'm just completely wrong about coaching contracts...

Anyway, they can't be paying Bannister very much and if the ownership group is on board then honestly who gives a f*** lol


Funnily enough, his career did not begin and end with coaching the Boston bruins

There's usually offset language.

So if they were paying Berube 4 million and Torontos paying him 3 million, they would likely owe him one million.
