Bruins name assistant coaches

ramsay1.JPGzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…..(snort)….hmmmm? wha?

Oh wow, there’s some Bruins news to report on. Today the Bruins named Craig Ramsay and Geoff Ward as Claude Julien’s sidekicks in the coaching box.

Ward has about a decade of coaching experience in the OHL and AHL and even won the Louis A.R. Pieri Memorial Award (yeah, I’ve never heard of it either, but it’s an award of merit!) in 2002-03 along with Claude Julien with whom he was coaching that year.  Obviously, Ward and Julien are no strangers to each other.

Ramsay coached the Sabres in ‘86-’87, the Flyers in ‘00-’01 and won a Stanley Cup as an assistant with the Lightning in 2004. He also had a distinguished career with the Sabres in the ’70s and ’80s. I remember his hockey cards fondly.
