Jim Montgomery keeps proving why he's the ultimate players' coach.
The Boston Bruins (26-4-2) are on the road to face the New Jersey Devils (22-9-2), and the bench boss made an awesome gesture to a few of his players.
Matt Porter of the Boston Globe shared how the Bruins starting lineup was special. As per Porter:
''Montgomery starting an all-ex-Devil line of Hall-Zacha-Greer in New Jersey. That's fun.''
Pavel Zacha was drafted 6th overall by the Devils in 2015, and registered 69 goals and 110 assists in 386 games with the club.
A.J. Greer spent two seasons in New Jersey but only appeared in 10 games, recording 2 points.
Taylor Hall played with the Devils for 4 years and collected 208 points in 211 games, including his MVP season of 39 goals and 54 assists in 2017-18.
