Brad Marchand Unexpectedly Surfaces As A Top Trade Candidate For The Bruins After Montgomery's Firing
Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand has surfaced as a top trade candidate for the Bruins after head coach Jim Montgomery's firing.
A top insider in the NHL has revealed that Brad Marchand could be the Bruins next trade candidate following Jim Montgomery's firing.
It didn't come to Bruins fans that Don Sweeney and the Boston Bruins ended up firing head coach Jim Montgomery.
Joe Sacco has since replaced him as the head coach. Sacco has been with the Bruins organization for 10 years now.
Following the firing of Jim Montgomery, captain Brad Marchand spoke out and blamed himself, along with the team for the firing of Montgomery.
Some more changes may come to the Bruins organization if the team still underperforms following the coaching change.
Sacco had a pretty successful debut with the Bruins as they ended up beating the Utah Hockey Club 1-0.
We could see a surprising player hit the trade block if the Bruins are unable to build off of their first win under Joe Sacco.
According to Chris Johnston, a reliable insider, the Boston Bruins may look at trading Brad Marchand:
The captain is awaiting an extension with the team as he is in his final year of his eight-year $6,125,000 contract.
Earlier in the year Brad Marchand shut down a contract rumour that he was close to signing a three-year extension with the Bruins, so this would not be surprising if it was true.
If the Boston Bruins do end up trading their captain, it would shock more people then the firing of head coach Jim Montgomery did.
