BOSTON - Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney held a press conference at TD Garden on Wednesday afternoon, along with Bruce Cassidy, who was officially named the 28th head coach in team history.
Sweeney and Cassidy both recapped the 2016-17 season, and how they view team moving forward.
There is obvious disappointment in the way the season ended, but the Black & Gold got back into the postseason and showed plenty of character both down the stretch, and while battling through injury adversity in the playoffs.
"Overall, I think our staff did a very good job," Sweeney told gathered reporters at TD Garden. "We have a lot of work to do as an organization, still. We want to become a deeper, more talented team from top to bottom."
