Brucerella, Brucerella, All I Hear Is Brucerella...
I've been "unemployed" for like 6 months. Not unemployed, but not able to find a new and better job. It only took Bruce Boudreau 3 days to become an NHL head coach again. Early Thursday morning, the Anaheim Ducks announced that Bruce Boudreau will be their new head coach. Bruce is a good guy, I've watched hockey for a month, we've shared many moments together...
If you didn't think Boudreau was a good coach this should tell you how respected he is in the NHL. I've never seen something like this happen before in sports. Is it a hockey thing? A coach getting fired and another team immediately dropping their current coach to hire him.
It may be tough for Bruce to change from the Dump & Chase to the Flying V, but I think he can do it...
The Ducks aren't exactly a great team, with only 18 points, the 2nd lowest amount in the league. But you may remember Bruce taking over a similarly poor team, the Washington Capitals, when they were 6-15 back in 2007. Bruce led them to the playoffs that year and for 3 more years after.
Has this ever happened before?
This of course means that the Ducks will win the Stanley Cup next year, as Bruce wins a championship every 7 years.
