Now, a new name is being connected to the Bruins, and it is somebody their fans know very well. According to The Fourth Period's David Pagnotta, former Bruins [https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqLQgKIidDQklTRndnTWFoTUtFWFJvWldodlkydGxlVzVsZDNNdVkyOXRLQUFQAQ/sections/CAQqEAgAKgcICjCvqtILMO7F6QMwluDfCA?hl=en-CA&gl=CA&ceid=CA:en] forward Marco Sturm is among the coaches Boston is currently considering for their vacant position. "On Bruins head coach search: Add Marco Sturm to the mix," Pagnotta reported on X [https://x.com/TheFourthPeriod/status/1920924334769508627?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet]. "Hearing he's under serious consideration for the position." Sturm, 46, is currently the head coach of the Los Angeles Kings' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Ontario Reign. The former Bruins forward has been the Reign's bench boss for each of the last three seasons. He was also an assistant coach for the Kings for four seasons before becoming head coach of the Reign. Thus, he has experience and could be ready to make the jump to his first NHL head coaching position. During his playing career, Sturm was acquired by the Bruins on November 30, 2005, as part of the infamous trade that sent former captain Joe Thornton to the San Jose Sharks. Sturm proved to be a key part of the Bruins' forward group following the move, posting 106 goals, 193 points, and a plus-24 rating in 302 games from 2005-06 to 2009-10. Seeing the Bruins bring back a former fan favorite like Sturm in a head coaching role would certainly be interesting. It will be intriguing to see if he ends up winning the job from here.
