As a Bruins fan, I have a lot of respect for Claude Julien and the work he did in Boston. He was a great defensive and team structured coach.
However a part of me always wondered if the team underachieved at times through the glory years 2010-2014 ish. Should this team have done a little more?
Cassidy is doing a tremendous job bringing the youth along right now. It is refreshing to see all the rookies performing so well. The future is bright.

Claude's style has been out of date for several years now. It wasn't working towards the end of his tenure in Boston, and it's clearly not working for them in MTL. Bruins made the right decision to move on when they did, and the Habs are now stuck with an albatross deal for another 4 years. Kind of a bonehead move signing to a 5 year deal in my opinion. But hey... I'll take a MTL team that can't score for the next 4 years
