NHL reporter may have just leaked Jim Montgomery's replacement with the Boston Bruins

Things have not been going the way the Boston Bruins had planned after making some big moves in the off-season to be a more competitive team this year.

The Bruins brought in some depth players, and made some big moves by bringing in Nikita Zadorov, and Elias Lindholm during the off-season to go for a deep playoff run this season.

Things aren't looking too good so for the Bruins as they currently have a 8-7-2 record right now which is good enough for 3rd place in the Atlantic Division, but there has been a lot of talk about Jim Montgomery.

Jim Montgomery is entering his last season under contract with the Boston Bruins, and with how the season has been going there has been a lot of speculation that he may get fired by the Bruins.

A NHL reporter that goes by 'NHL Watcher' on X may have just leaked who the next Boston Bruins head coach could be if Montgomery does get fired by the Bruins or isn't signed to an extension in the off-season.

Here is what he had to say:

Definitely a controversial take, but he also had this to say about the possibility of Quenneville even coming back into the league:

If Montgomery does get fired by the Bruins or isn't signed to an extension with them, he will have many other job opportunities and won't go long without a job as he is a great coach.
