Arthur Staple reports that Matt Bertani was among those let go by the new regime of late. Bertani had been in the organization a decade: He joined Bridgeport in 2008-09 as the second assistant and video coach under Jack Capuano and Pat Bingham, was Bingham’s only assistant the second half of 2010-11, and stayed under Brent Thompson and Eric Boguniecki the next year. He moved up to the Big Club in 2012.
Some big names non-tendered by Colorado, and on the list is Jesse Graham.
And elsewhere, Belleville has its Mann, and I don’t apologize.
