Per The Athletic, reporter Aaron Portzlin announced on social media that Bruins legend and hall of Famer, Mark Recchi was no longer going to be with the team when the season stars.
Assistant coach Mark Recchi has been informed he will not be back with #CBJ next season.
That's a rough ride for an NHL Hall of Famer w 3 Stanley Cup rings - fired after only one season after joining the franchise last Sept mid-training camp following the Babcock debacle.
The main reasons were not disclosed on why he was let go from the team but it seems that the Blue Jackets are in a midst of shaking things up as they went through a miserable season in 2023-2024.
Recchi had one year remaining on his contract w #CBJ. The club has not announced his replacement on Dean Evason's staff.
Sounds like #CBJ assistant coach Steve McCarthy will be retained, although neither the club nor McCarthy has commented publicly on that.
As reported last week, assistant coach Jared Boll will return next season.
