I am not certain I would be that harsh relative to Quenville's role in the Chicago matter.

My understanding is that he knew about it, as they all did, including Bowman, and swept it under the rug because they didn't want the "distraction" whilst successfully pursuing a Stanley Cup.

Quenneville is an excellent coach and I would hire him if I could. He is older, as Mike from Everett pointed out.

As for Babcock, I couldn't look at the guy with a straight face. He's a clown. I want no part of his foolishness.
So Quennville, along with others, 'swept it under the rug' essentially leaving Beach in a terrible situation where he watched the team do nothing publicly while they win the Cup, and then allowed Aldrich to celebrate the Cup win and resign without a word.

If i remember correctly Aldrich takes another job and assaults another kid, because of course no one knew about the Chicago situation because , well , 'they swept it under the rug'.

I can't imagine how alone Kyle Beach must have felt. Traumatic stuff.

And you want the guy that was a big part in all this to coach the Bruins? No.

All true.

What I want, more than anything, is a coach who knows what he's doing in all three zones. That coach is clearly not Jim Montgomery. That's really all I'm saying.

Honest question: who would you like as the new coach, assuming you want a new coach?

Quenville, did nothing to help Beach, and in my eyes was complicit, in a 15 year old getting assaulted. I will try someone else in that position when the time comes.

To go along with that, as long as those responsible for hiring Stan Bowman in Edmonton remain with that franchise i will root for any other team in the NHL to win a Cup instead of them.

. I'd rather the bruins lose every single game than hire that piece of trash.
