Boston Bruins make Marco Sturm the NHL's first German coach DW 06/05/2025
Briefly

Marco Sturm has been appointed as the 30th head coach of the Boston Bruins, an Original Six team with a rich history in the NHL. Sturm's selection comes after an extensive interview process and reflects the confidence that Bruins management has in his experience and passion for the game. With the Bruins looking to rebound after missing the playoffs for the first time since 2016, Sturm is positioned to develop young talent, aided by nine high draft picks in the coming years, which aligns with his coaching strengths and desire to foster new players.
Boston has always held a special place in my heart, and I know how much this team means to the city and to our fans. I've felt that passion as a player, and I can't wait to be behind the bench and feel it again.
Marco impressed us at every step with his preparation, clarity, and passion. His path playing for multiple NHL teams, coaching internationally, and leading at both the AHL and NHL levels has shaped a well-rounded coach who's earned this opportunity.
