Today marks a bitter sweet day for Monsters hockey, as the club announced that head coach Jared Bednar will be leaving to accept the head coach position with the Colorado Avalanche. Monsters faithful are glad to see Bednars’ success rewarded with a shot in the NHL, but wonder what impact his absence will have on the team’s 2016-2017 season and beyond.
