Analysts list NHL head coaches on hot seat after Jim Montgomery's firing- Source: Imagn
The firing of Jim Montgomery as head coach of the Boston Bruins after just 20 games has put the spotlight on other NHL coaches potentially on the hot seat. Analysts discussed which coaches could be next after the Bruins' shocking move.
While talking on Sportsnet, analyst Luke Gazdic pointed to Nashville Predators coach Andrew Brunette as someone potentially in trouble given the team's lackluster start despite big offseason signings.
Gazdic said:
“I’m going to Nashville, Tennessee, and Andrew Brunette. With the amount of money that they spent this summer and the start that they are having. You already got Barry Trotz talking about, you know, tearing this thing down into a rebuild."
