Rick Bowness Takes Leave Following Wife's Illness
1 year agoWinnipeg Jets head coach Rick Bowness is on leave from the club after his wife, Judy, suffered a seizure on Sunday. The length of the club's bench boss' absence is yet to be determined but Scott Arneil, the former head coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets while also holding roles with the Sabres, Rangers, and Capitals, will handle interim head-coaching duties for the time being. The Jets are off to a rocky 2-3-0 record to begin their season while they will take on the Blues, Red Wings, Canadiens, and Rangers this week as they look to climb back in the Central division standings.
