Two NHL insiders weighed in on the latest news from the Bruins' head coaching search
Briefly

The Boston Bruins are nearing the end of their head coaching search, with expectations set for an announcement early this week. Interim coach Joe Sacco will not be retained following a disappointing season. NHL insiders report that the club has narrowed its candidates to two, with Marco Sturm reportedly performing well in interviews. This decision follows the firing of Jim Montgomery and reflects the team's urgency to reshape its coaching staff.
