Speculation: Potential Coaching Replacements for Jim Montgomery

[Hookslide]

Gallant.

I can live with a hard nose coach, rather than a bully, and a pedophile enabler.

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

I don't know who steps in but I think tonight said a lot about where Monty's head is at. Sure, the camera could have panned to him at the wrong times. But where's the emotion? Why isn't he going to bat for his troops after Benn wasn't ejected? Why is he yawning at the bench in the third? I don't know if I've ever seen that level of " don't give a shit " from a bench boss before. Each camera shot at the Bruins bench, vacant 1000 yard stare in his eyes, hands in his pockets. His body language was flat out awful, even with the game still within reach and the Bruins pressing for a tying goal. No call of a time out in the 2nd when it looked like the game was about to get out of hand. No goalie pull after it was clear Swayman wasn't the answer tonight.

It looks like he's checked out and it's time management gives Monty what he wants.

I’ll bet management told him he was on the hot seat and he’s said to hell with it. Funny that out GM hasn’t said a thing about vote of confidence or anything at all

Has anybody seen Sweeney to question him? Is the Boston Media smart enough to ask?

No. No one cares. Fluto is off writing his obituaries for No. 9 Park and Mistral

During his post game interview, Monty says they let the game get away from them in the 2nd.

AND HE LET IT HAPPEN. Jim, it's your job to get the team back on track. After that awful one handed goal to make it 4-1, you call a time out. You pull the goalie. You rally the troops. Instead, he let's them bleed out on the ice and the Stars score again to make it 5-1 going into the third, essentially ending all hope.

This is like watching Dave Lewis 2.0. I've seen enough.

 

[NDiesel]

Wish the Quenville suggestions would stop, IMO you get a very short leash when you have the privilege to play or coach in a professional sports league. You deserve another chance in making things right in life but not another chance at making millions of dollars.

Other people deserve that shot now.

Is he completely checked out? He must know by now his group isn't good enough to be able to win enough to save his job before Xmas. Just a matter of time.

todd. mclellan. i like the guy. he loves structure and seems like a good dude. from an entertainment standpoint, maybe
not as exciting...but he has some fire and also has the chummy side like captain monty.
