As new Blues coach Jim Montgomery appeared before reporters Monday at Madison Square Garden sporting a dark blue sweatshirt emblazoned with the team\'s famed blue note logo, there was no hesitation about his emotions.
An assistant with the Blues from 2020-22, Montgomery is overjoyed to be back with St. Louis.
\"Crazy -- there\'s no other word for it,\" the 55-year-old said less than a week after he was fired by the Boston Bruins and hired by St. Louis to replace Drew Bannister. \"I have worked with over half this lineup already, and I know how committed they are. For me, this was a no-brainer for me to come back home.\"
