CHICAGO (AP) — Joel Quenneville barking out instructions from behind the bench. A young team with a couple of budding stars showing signs of improvement.
It was a familiar scene, with quite a twist.
The Florida Panthers got Quenneville a win in his return to Chicago, using a hat trick by Frank Vatrano to beat the Blackhawks 4-3 on Tuesday night for their sixth consecutive victory.
“Made it a little interesting at the end of the game, but that was certainly a memorable event that I’m thankful for,” Quenneville said.
The 61-year-old Quenneville coached Chicago to three Stanley Cup championships and nine playoff appearances in 10-plus years before he was fired when the team got off to a lackluster start last season.
