Following a meeting that included Commissioner Gary Bettman, Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly, General Manager Bill Zito, and President and CEO Matthew Caldwell, Joel Quenneville tendered his resignation as Head Coach of the Florida Panthers.
An interim head coach announcement will be forthcoming.
Panthers CEO Matthew Caldwell had his to say:
After the release of the Jenner & Block investigative report on Tuesday afternoon, we have continued to diligently review the information within that report, in addition to new information that has recently become available. It should go without saying that the conduct described in that report is troubling and inexcusable.
