A major development has surfaced in a former head coach returning to the Boston Bruins organization and it changes things.
The Boston Bruins' biggest and most important move right now should be fixating on finding a new and improved head coach to bring the organization back to life in the 2025/26 NHL season.
And the franchise's general manager, Don Sweeney, is doing just that, as the Boston Bruins' search for their next head coach is coming to an end.
However, the switch has not been completed just yet and new insight has been revealed regarding the Boston Bruins' current interim head coach, Joe Sacco, and his future within the organization.
A trusted NHL insider, vocalized the idea that Joe Sacco is not fully out of the picture of this Original Six's future and believes head coach candidate, Jay Woodcroft, is also in the midst of this too.
Take a look:
Elliotte Friedman on the 32 Thoughts Podcast:
"I'm under the impression that Joe Sacco as of us recording this late Thursday night is not out of the picture (In Boston). And I still think Jay Woodcroft is in the midst of this too."
"I'm under the impression that Joe Sacco as of us recording this late Thursday night is not out of the picture (In Boston). And I still think Jay Woodcroft is in the midst of this too."
In addition to this insight, an alternative insider, Jimmy Murphy, unveiled that Joe Sacco is expected to receive an offer as assistant if he wants to stay within the organization.
«To add to this, I've had more than one source tell me that if Jay Leach becomes the head coach, Joe Sacco would stay on as an assistant if he wants to.»
Although it is uncertain which candidate the Boston Bruins' Don Sweeney will choose, it is seeming like Joe Sacco will still be in the midst of the organization's re-tool, and that he will most likely endure a demotion.
Do you think the Boston Bruins' interim head coach, Joe Sacco, will become the team's assistant?
