Does Joe Sacco Deserve to be Officially the HC of the Bruins in 2025 2026

The late Red Fisher wrote about Sinden blocking it often. He was finally inducted four years after his death in 2010.

I am well aware of the timeline.

I am also well aware that Harry Sinden was a next generation iteration of Jack Adams, for good and ill.

If you can elaborate as to Sinden's hostility toward Burns, I would like to understand.

If not, no problem.

@GordonHowe Harry has never said why.

Harry holds grudges - Ask Cheevers and Park. Maybe Harry got a speeding ticket from him.....

Red Fisher would nag Harry in print anytime he knew Sinden was in Montreal, but he would not budge.

I spent an afternoon working on a video shoot at Burns' home in 2009. One of his neighbors was Bill Lee. Burns lived in Quebec, but the only way to drive to his home was in Vermont.

Guess I'll add this to the list, legion as it is, of petty Harry stories.

As if more were needed to prove the point.

At one time a great hockey mind.

That had its last gasp in 1990.

I can't say I'll be sorry when he's gone.

Hmmm

David Pastrnak v a Bruins fan

BWAHAHAHAH

The only way I want Sacco back is if Mike Sullivan is made available by Pittsburgh. Sullivan loves his teams to play as soft as he did. He hates hitting, fighting and overall physical play. Again, like himself.
Also, I think Country Club Charlie would be worse with his father-in-law behind the bench. I would like to see Torts behind the Bruins bench. I have no need for a “players coach” and I really don’t care if the players like the coach or not. We need results, not more coddling.

Another reason I don't want Joe Sacco back. I do not like how he handles his goaltenders.

No

..the only coach I want back next season is goalie Bob

 

[nasero]

Exactly as other said. Keep Bob, clear out the rest. It's time for some fresh blood in all parts of the coaching team.

What a bad take on Sullivan.

 

[Clode]

No. Sacco has been here for 10 years, time for a new voice.

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

What a bad take on Sullivan.

It is.
