There has been speculation regarding former NHL coach Joel Quenneville returning to coaching next season.
Expect #NHL teams to inquire about hiring Joel Quenneville as their Head Coach. Hear he wants back behind the bench and there is expected to be significant interest in hiring the future Hall of Famer. Q will need to meet with Commissioner Gary Bettman to be reinstated.� Andy Strickland (@andystrickland) May 1, 2022
The 3-time Stanley Cup winner resigned as the Florida Panthers coach in October after specifics emerged regarding the Chicago Blackhawks handling of allegations a player had been sexually abused by an assistant coach while Quenneville was head coach of Chicago in 2010.
NHL commissioner Gary Bettman addressed the speculation last night.
