The Bruins are reportedly set to enter the home stretch in their extended search for a new head coach.
The Athletic’s Pierre LeBrun took to social media on Thursday to offer up an update on Don Sweeney’s efforts at finding a new bench boss, noting that in-person interviews are set to commence next week.
“On Bruins’ coaching search, my understanding is final interviews will be conducted next week and then a decision to come after that,” LeBrun posted. “Not sure who made the cut.”
LeBrun’s report falls in line with the message echoed by Cam Neely to The Boston Globe’s Jim McBride about Boston’s timeline.
