Jay Leach to coach Atlantic Division squad at the AHL All-Star Game

It’s been quite a first season behind the bench for Jay Leach.

Named Providence Bruins head coach back in the summer, Leach has guided the P-Bruins to the best record in the AHL’s Atlantic Division (as of the end of December) and, as a result, will coach the Atlantic Division team at the AHL All-Star game in late January.

The P-Bruins currently sport a record of 21-8-3 under Leach’s direction, so the honor is well deserved.

Per the AHL, the format for the All-Star Game is as follows:

The teams will participate in a round-robin tournament featuring six games of 10 minutes each, played entirely at 3-on-3.
