The Montreal Canadiens fired goaltending coach Eric Raymond on Wednesday.
They made the move 53 games into the NHL season despite sitting in a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Goalies Jakub Dobes, Samuel Montembeault and Jacob Fowler have combined for a save percentage of .884 that ranks 28th among the league's 32 teams.
Marco Marciano was promoted from the same job with the American Hockey League's Laval Rocket to fill the role on an interim basis for the remainder of the season. Raymond had served in the job since 2021.
