This Bruins superstar gave an honest response about Jim Montgomery being fired.
On Wednesday (Nov 20), Boston Bruins superstar David Pastrnak discussed Jim Montgomery's firing from the team's head coaching position and honestly assessed the matter.
Here is what No. 88 said about Montgomery being fired, as reported by 98.5 The Sports Hub's Ty Anderson:
"We weren't getting the job done, and because we weren’t getting it done, we lost a great coach and a great human being."
It is hard to disagree with Pastrnak's statement. The Bruins' all-around poor play this season was the primary reason Montgomery was let go by the Original Six. Now, Pastrnak and the Bruins will try to turn things around with Joe Sacco as their bench boss.
