Little bit of #CBJ news on the coaching search. As first heard on 97.1 this morning, I am told #CBJ has spoken to Andrew Brunette about the HC position.
Another name added to list of many they've spoken to. Still no sense of any frontrunners.

Finally, damn. Hopefully they’ve been smoke and mirrors up to this point and hire Brunette after all.
With the caveat that I know nearly nothing about evaluating hockey coaching, I’m glad to finally read this.
Burnette strikes a good balance between experience and bringing a fresh face, plus he’s seen a fair bit of (regular season) success. I like the idea of Burnette coaching the BJs far more than some of the other names we’ve been seeing.
I’m okay with this
This is the best possible option to pursue in my opinion.
I was starting to get nervous when the only people linked to interviews were Vincent, Laviolette, and Babcock. At least now it seems like we’ve talked to quite a few candidates.
God bless.
Give me Pecknold or Brunette. Make it happen Jarmo!
Yes give me that!
