New development in Joel Quenneville’s NHL return

As you’ve been keeping up, five head coaching jobs have already opened up in the NHL, including one opening with the New York Rangers despite the team reaching the postseason. The Columbus Blue Jackets, Calgary Flames, Washington Capitals and Anaheim Ducks are also looking for a new bench boss and Darren Dreger’s latest update on Joel Quenneville could have these teams paying more attention on the new developments.
According to Dreger, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman will meet with Quenneville as soon as the season ends to review his status.
It’s been known how Quenneville would like to return behind an NHL bench, he who has reportedly undergone the necessary work, assigned by Bettman, after he resigned in disgrace from the Florida Panthers after being implicated in the Chicago Blackhawks’ cover up of the Brad Aldrich sex scandal in 2010.
While Quenneville will have to prove to potential interest teams that he has changed his controversial ways, there is no arguing over his talents as a head coach of the game. He is the second-winningest coach in NHL history, his 969 victories trailing only the 1,244 amassed by Scotty Bowman.
However, it remains to be seen if these teams will risk waiting out for the end of the playoffs to make the call on who will take over their bench next season.
And if that team is ready for a PR backlash of epic proportions.
