Don Sweeney, Bruins admit they faced some hard truths during head-coaching search
Briefly

The Boston Bruins recently appointed Marco Sturm as their new head coach after interviewing 14 candidates. General Manager Don Sweeney emphasized the discomfort teams feel when subjected to external analysis of their performances and strategies. He noted the need for openness to criticisms and changes, especially following a disappointing season where the Bruins had the fifth-worst NHL record. Critiques highlighted issues such as inadequate roster size, a lack of secondary scoring, and declining special teams performance, all contributing factors to their unsuccessful season.
The process in that sense - it can be uncomfortable in terms of the critical eye that other people are watching your team and breaking down your team and the changes they want to make.
I think the number was 14 that I started with, some of them were initial conversations, but there was always one or two, so probably about 14.
