Surprise in Brossard as a Familiar Face Shows Up in a Coach's Uniform for the Canadiens
We have a nice surprise to report today, live from Brossard, for the Montreal Canadiens organization.
As reported by Marc-Olivier Cook, none other than David Savard just hit the ice wearing a coach's uniform!
We know there have been plenty of rumors circulating since the start of the summer suggesting that David Savard could be hired by the Montreal Canadiens (similar to what happened with Paul Byron).
Has it already been finalized and made official?

This is definitely a situation to watch, but don't be surprised if Savard follows in Paul Byron's footsteps and the Habs announce his hiring in the coming hours.
It would be an excellent addition!
Savard even had a good chat with none other than
Kirby Dach in the last few minutes.
"A future role within the organization for the defenseman who just retired?"
- Marc-Olivier Cook
Also worth noting, Savard and Dach were far from the only ones on the ice in Brossard.
