In a stunning and unexpected development, Boston Bruins head coach Marco Sturm has officially submitted his resignation letter to the Bruins’ front office just minutes ago, sources close to the organization confirm.The news broke shortly after the team landed back in Boston following their preseason tour, with Sturm reportedly delivering the letter personally at TD Garden upon arrival.
Sturm, who took the reins of the Bruins in 2023, led the team through two competitive seasons and was widely respected for his leadership, strong communication skills, and ability to develop young talent. Under his guidance, the Bruins made consistent playoff appearances, though they fell short of a Stanley Cup Final berth.
The timing of the resignation has raised eyebrows, especially with the 2025–26 NHL season just weeks away. While the team has yet to release an official statement, speculation is swirling about internal disagreements or possible personal reasons behind the sudden move.
Assistant coaches have been instructed to handle practice sessions until an interim or permanent replacement is named. Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney is expected to address the media later today.
