Joel Quenneville Speaks Out on Possible NHL Return
Amidst discussions surrounding a potential comeback to the NHL, former coach Joel Quenneville recently addressed his stance on rejoining the league in light of the Kyle Beach scandal.

During a guest appearance on the Cam and Strick Podcast, Quenneville openly discussed his regrets regarding the handling of the Kyle Beach situation. Admitting fault, he expressed that he should have taken more decisive action upon learning about the seriousness of the matter.

Acknowledging his lack of thorough investigation, he emphasized the need for proper reporting and follow-up by higher management.
Path to Redemption
