jkrdevil Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 First Ftorek now Julien BRuins like ex Devils CoachesNot only ex-Devils coaches but ex-devils coaches who get fired with less than 10 games to go while in first place. I don't understand this move. They fired Lewis to replace him with a guy just like Lewis. Apparently Julien and Charelli go back a bit but still it's an odd choice. I think Julien will last a year at the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I really think they should of gone with Milbury. I doubt Julien will be here for more than 2 seasons. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I was hopping for Pat Quinn to get hired, I think it would be nice for him to get back into the NHL and try for a cup. Not like the Bruins have any chance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I was on WEEI Sports Talk Boston this afternoon, around 12:50 or so, and chimed in a little. I said that I wished the B's did this a few more weeks ago, and brought back Mike Keenan. Keenan, IMO, was instrumental in developing Thornton into the type of player he is today, and I thought it would be interesting to see what he could do with Phil Kessel. I was quickly shot down by Dale Arnold, who rejected the idea from the get-go. Tom Caron seemed slightly intrigued, but I guess that's the way it goes.
