We just got hit with a big surprise regarding the excellent Bob Hartley.
Montreal Canadiens fans are obviously very familiar with Hartley, who is an incredible coach and an elite hockey mind-and now, he's caused quite a stir.
Against all odds, Bob Hartley is coming out of retirement. He's back behind the bench and has been hired as head coach (in the KHL).
We love it.
Clearly, you can't keep a hockey fanatic like him in retirement for too long.

What a great surprise!
For now, it's unclear what this means for his roles at RDS and BPM Sports, but I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.
Let's remember that after the 2021-22 season, Hartley announced his retirement as a head coach. But today, at 64 years old, he's back!
"Hartley has just accepted a new head coaching job. It'll be in the KHL, where he'll take the reins of Lokomotiv."

And I'm certain he'll do wonders with this already very competitive team.
There, Bob will have the chance to coach another name well known to Canadiens fans-a certain Alexander Radulov.
More details to come.
