from Mike Davies of the Peterborough Examiner,
Jay Legault and Marc Savard are finding a different kind of fulfillment in hockey now that their playing days are done.
With Savard’s 14-year NHL career sidelined by concussion issues, he’s joined Legault, his former Oshawa Generals teammate, to coach the Peterborough Boston Pizza minor peewee Petes….
Legault coached at the midget level for several years and Savard approached him about taking on the minor peewees where Savard’s son Zach plays.
“My future was up in the air for a bit so he took the head coaching job and it just worked out perfect that we got the team together,” Savard said….
It’s helped Savard’s transition out of playing.
“It’s taking up a lot of my time which I kind of need right now to keep my head as good as it can be,” he said.
