Former Stars head coach Jim Montgomery was one of the three Boston Bruins award winners, joining captain Patrice Bergeron and goaltender Linus Ullmark. Montgomery coached Boston to 65 wins in his first season with the team, and he thanked those who supported him through a low point in his career. Advertisement“Three and a half years ago, the Dallas Stars terminated my contract because of my struggles with alcohol, and I had to change my actions and behaviors,” Montgomery said. “For those who struggle out there, you can change, you can affect change within yourself, and it doesn’t happen alone. You need a team.”AdvertisementDallas’ new head coach Pete DeBoer finished eighth in Jack Adams voting after leading the Stars to the Western Conference finals.
