Don Sweeney has signed a two-year extension with the Boston Bruins through 27-28 to remain general manager.
“Don has navigated a disappointing period for our club with conviction, purpose and a clear vision toward the future of the Boston Bruins,” president Cam Neely said in a statement. “He made difficult decisions around the trade deadline with the confidence they will pay dividends as we craft a path back to contention. He is continuing to follow that track with a robust and thorough search for our club’s next head coach, while also preparing for the upcoming NHL Draft and free agent signing period. I am confident in the plan he has followed these past few months — and excited for what’s to come for our team.”
Sweeney has been general manager of the Bruins since May 2015. The Bruins missed the playoffs for the first time since 2016 during the 24-25 season. Sweeney is currently conducting a coaching search.
