Jacques Martin has been relieved of his duties as head coach of the Montreal Canadiens.
A team tweet has indicated that Randy Cunneyworth has been named interim head coach until the end of the season.
The team has gotten out to a 13-12-7 start this season and currently sits last in the Northeast Division.
Cunneyworth had been an assistant coach with the team and had previously served as head coach of the team's American Hockey League affiliate in Hamilton.

Kevin Dineen
Cunneyworth should have been on Ruff's coaching staff as soon the organization moved their farm team from Rochester to Portland instead of Brian McSuckon. Same thing goes for Dineen.
