HockeyBuzz Hotstove: Should the Boston Bruins have fired Claude Julien?

yes. a month ago.

Maybe but they should show CJ some respect, I agree with this.

Holding the press conference during the patriots parade is total coward move, they know only the beat writers will be there, while everyone and their mother will be at/watching the parade. Then we won't see Sweeney and Neely for a while.

gutless.

and neither Neely or Sweeney will go on with any of the radio stations. haven't heard from them in months.

the other three teams in the city all do regularly.

Hopefully Sweeney and Neely are next on the chopping block after this season. Tired of their BS.

My opinion of Neely as a player is the exact opposite to my opinion of him as an executive

100%

in over his head.

Though Claude is a very good coach and I am sad to see him go. He has stifled the offensive creativity of the team. Is that because of the talent level? Maybe.

They also keep falling flat in must win games.

So, it was time.

no he hasn't. and he never did. just because he wants all 5 guys to be responsible in the D zone does not mean that offense was stifled.

he regularly had this team in the top 5 in the league for scoring.

I feel the same way about Trevor Linden.
Players that should have probably left the game when they did as players.

you know the list of great players that sucked as executives is quite long compared to the ones that became great or even good executives.

You guys got this covered. I got tickets next week and then I'm done until Neely is gone. Gutless puke inducing team to do this during the superbowl parade when no one is watching.

Cam Neely's Bruins have no future.

too many nights they didnt play a whole game. Usually taking of the 1st period. Thats on the coach. That said, pretty cowardly the way they did it. He's squeezed everything he could have out of this roster. Dont give the man cans of alpo and ask him to make filet mignon out of it.

...and the list of great execs and coaches are usually filled with marginal to good players..

Wow. Whatever coach they get that's a step down. One of the best in the game.

Reminds me of when Pat Quinn was fired. Sometimes it's the players and not the coach. Hopefully that dummy Sweeny can figure that out.

Cam Neely meet Garth Snow. Sad really.

I wouldn't go that far... until he hires mike milbury that is..

Don't feel too bad for Julien. I have a feeling they did him a favor.

Yes. Fountain covered this. The way they went about it is garbage. Made it crystal clear the Cam Neely Bruins have no idea what they're doing nor do they have any hint of professionalism. If I'm looking for a job Boston would be at the bottom of my list. Major red flags being flown buy this trash group. Gutless, garbage management team.
