Speculation: Potential Coaching Replacements for Jim Montgomery

[JCRO]

Only in Boston would we have a coach who is 120-40-15 as Head Coach, a top six with 2 top six players on it and he is the one at risk of being fired NOT the management team...

You’re not wrong at all Coach. But it’s a “what have you done for me lately” kind of league.

This team is unstructured and uninspired. Inconsistency is their lover. They also have the mental fortitude of a toddler. That last point a cynical fan could argue it be attributed to the coach since we’ve seen flashes of it more than once in his time here.

While it’s not all on Jimbo and his staff, it’s the easiest move to be made especially where this is his last year under contract. Then we’ll really see if it was the team or the coach and go from there.

I think most of us agree that it’s ridiculous to think Sweeney is going to live through a third coaching change and it’s absolutely unfair that he gets another scapegoat. But again, if the change happens at HC and they still suck eggs, well there’s your answer and I think the answer many are expecting.

This situation feels very similar to Claude’s last days here to me. I know at that time I didn’t think he deserved to be fired but I also knew the team was better than they were. Not saying it plays out that way this time. Just drawing lines.

That is a really good analogy. Your father was a smart man.

Smarter than the squirrels.

and soon. Sweeney heading team Canada must be distracting.
Four Nations BS is just that.
I only care about one team, Boston Bruins.

You are so right about this Team Canada crap, why did they need to have a active GM doing that job, you telling, me there are no other qualified hockey guy out there that can do the job.

Do we really think DS is out their scouting for the 4N team? Like the American team it's a forgone conclusion what those rosters are going to be.

It may be more of a distraction for guys trying to get noticed.

Sweeney will trade before he fires Monty, when he does make coaching changes it will be the entire staff behind the bench in the offseason.

Just me 2 pennies

Boston media only cares about the Pat-riots, and the Celtics. The Bruins are doing exactly as the media wants them to. Be a non-factor.

Only a non factor until negative news comes out.

Good point , they shine then.
