Management Montgomery fired - Sacco named interim coach Sacco and Sweeney Address Media

[Ozzy Osbourne]

Sorry for the unusual posts made by me last evening. My wife ordinarily takes electronic items from me before this happens. I don’t see anything too bad, but sorry anyways.

I like Sweeney but this is so dumb. Like dude you got away with one, but then you run out and say if Montgomery took a deal to our liking we then would have been stuck with him. Whatever. Just stop talking.

Don’t believe everything you hear.

Did they know he wasn’t coming back this was it no matter what - his and wife choice ?

Allegedly, his wife wants to go to St Louis. It doesn’t excuse the poor effort of the players (Pasta, Mcavoy) even if they did know and all had a “lame duck” feeling.

Probably for a few years yes. However Chiarelli was more successful and people here crap all over him to this day

Not me hes my hero . Imagine no cup since 1972 till now.

check out the timeline on doug armstrong naming drew bannister the permanent head coach. i think it was 2 days after the
bruins beat the leafs. the blues were hoping b's lost that series, because the end game was monty coaching st. louis based
on a handful of sources close to the situation.

bannister got a 2 year deal so that door is closed for now. and seems like detroit is sniffing around monty - lalonde is in the
same boat as he was, coach without a contract past this year and behind the bench of a team in disarray (and the "quietest
room i've ever seen", as he termed it).

I completely agree. The thing about Chiarelli is that he goes big or goes home. That is a recipe for winning a Stanley Cup but it is also a recipe for getting fired.

Still, my favorite above all is the gimlet eye cast by Walter the dog.

I have saved the image, but for the uninitiated, please post again,

With increasing frequency, every time I see Don Sweeney do his professorial, matter of fact, I'm the smartest guy in the room act, my dislike for him expands exponentially.

He's not a terrible GM, in fact a good one, but boy do I want this guy gone. I am heartily sick of his sh*t.

Even if they turn it around this season, which I expect, if I could wave my magic wand both Sweeney and Neely would slip silently, inoffensively, into the ether. Never to be heard from again.

"Tiis an outcome devoutly to be wished for,"

The Jacob's family in reality should force retirement on them. Say essentially we don't want to fire you but if you don't retire I'm gonna fire you.

Does anyone remember the year under Cassidy when Sacco was head coach for a few games? My recollection is that it was the 2021-2022 season, but I can't find any answers.

If you can remember a month, great. It would be nice to see some stats, as I remember the game looking a lot better for that brief moment.

Bruce Cassidy glad to be back with Bruins after COVID bout

Cassidy will return to Bruins bench, Tuesday

The Bruins went 3-1-2 in his absence and are coming off back-to-back wins over Edmonton and Calgary on the road before hosting Vegas, Tuesday at TD Garden. Cassidy praised Sacco’s work in the big chair.

“It was great for Joe. Hopefully, it raises his profile. Guys responded well,” Cassidy said. “But I’m looking forward to getting back at it. (Jokingly wagging a finger at Sacco) I told him. It’s not your job yet.”

I have my questions about him as a head coach, but I like Joe Sacco the person so I'm not really looking to bury him, yet I cannot get past the total absurdity of him saying he's gotta develop relationships with the players.

You've literally been here longer than all but one of them (right)? You were the lead assistant coach? You.....you didn't have relationships with them already? Don't know what makes them tick? What kind of motivations and incentives they respond to?

I mean....

Well he was running the PP so yeah maybe he doesn’t know the players he’s working with
