Steve Kasper
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Steve Kasper (born September 28, 1961 in Montreal, Quebec) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey forward who won the Frank Selke Trophy in 1982. He also served as head coach of the Boston Bruins. Before his short-lived tenure with the Bruins, he was a somewhat successful coach of Boston's AHL affiliate, the Providence Bruins.
After his hiring, the Bruins had one of the worst seasons in the franchise's history. In the 1996-97 season, the Bruins were the worst team in the NHL, missing the playoffs for the first time in 28 years. Kasper was subsequently fired.
