Boston Bruins Head Coach sends free coaching lesson to Sheldon Keefe
For the second season in a row the Boston Bruins, led by head coach Jim Montgomery, are the best team in the league. This achievement comes with Montgomery being featured as the Head Coach for the Atlantic Division All Star Team. This year that meant Montgomery would be behind the bench alongside Justin Bieber coaching Team Matthews.
In Game 1 Team Matthews faces off against Team Hughes. Matthews squad was able to squeak out a 6-5 victory, with the captain being rather disappointing. As a matter of fact the like of Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner was a -3 on the game.
For the final game against Team McDavid, Matthews and Marner found themselves split up and playing on different lines. Which is something that doesn't often happen under Sheldon Keefe. After the game Montgomery was asked about his decision.
Coach Jim Montgomery on splitting Matthews and Marner for the championship game: «Well, one line was minus-3 in the first game.»
Team Matthews went onto win the final game 7-4, with Matthews having 2 goals and 1 assist alongside Clayton Keller. It's clear that this could potentially be an important lesson for someone like Sheldon Keefe to learn if the Leafs are going to accomplish anything this spring.
