The Boston Bruins have made a significant change in their coaching staff, parting ways with Jim Montgomery following a challenging start to the season. The team has struggled considerably, managing to win only 8 out of their first 20 games, which ultimately led to Montgomery’s dismissal.

In the wake of this decision, the Bruins have appointed Joe Sacco as the interim head coach. Sacco, who has previous experience both as a head coach in the NHL and as an assistant coach, will temporarily take over the team’s coaching responsibilities while the Bruins search for a long-term replacement.

The Bruins, a franchise known for its rich history and success, are currently looking to rekindle their competitive edge in the league. The move to relieve Montgomery of his duties indicates a pressing need for change in order to turn around the team’s fortunes this season.

Sacco has been a part of the Bruins’ coaching staff and is expected to bring his expertise and perspective to the role, aiming to lift the team’s performance as they navigate the remainder of the season. Fans and analysts will be closely monitoring how the transition unfolds and whether Sacco can help guide the organization back to its winning ways.
