The Bruins made a saddening announcement this afternoon, stating that Jim Montgomery's mother Dorothy has passed away. Jim will be away from the team as he attends her funeral services.
The Bruins are set to play preseason action on Friday against the Flyers where there will be a substitute head coach. The team will play Philadelphia again on Monday but Montgomery is expected to be back in time to coach that game.
Our thoughts are with Jim, his family, and the Bruins organization.
