Why would anyone be disappointed about Julien being brought back...do people think we won the cup in spite of him?

I love Claude, I think he does a great job with the team.
Having said the Bruins can be downright boring to watch sometimes given the style of game he has them play. I guess you can say that about any coach though

The problem is boring wins, less risk, control the game and don't take chances

Claude Julien is awful. He runs a terrible power play, never plays undeserving rookies, and worst of all, he won a cup with a roster that WASN'T ideally built. Not to mention since takin over the bruins have always been a top team in the NHL.
Nah, let's ditch him bring back Dave Lewis

Yes, and although most people forget or have turned their backs on him ...Tim Fukking Thomas standing on his head and breaking almost every conceivable record a Goaltender could imagine is the reason we won the Cup! Originally Posted by Hockeyras

Not our inept Power Play which couldn't score a goal to save their lives...great coaching Claudia!
Claude Julien was riding the coattails of one of the greatest seasons/playoffs by a Goaltender in NHL history...but as far as his abilities as a coach I think he's overrated at best.Last edited by Kaspa; 07-24-2012 at 02:34 AM.

Never before have I seen a person try to discredit a coach for winning a Stanley cup. Originally Posted by Kaspa

Tim Thomas was a big reason we won the cup. Not as big a reason as Claude Julien. I think that is something a lot of ppl will take issue with and is not a popular opinion. IMO Julien is currently one of the top 3 coaches in the league. His only criticisms? His system is boring to watch, and the PP sux. Both are debatable points and pretty empty IMO.

He sticks up for his players when he should. He criticizes when he should. He benches when he should. Has handled Rookies perfectly. Handles the media extremely well. Has the players completely "bought in" to his system.
Our playoff run in 2011 was a coaching masterpiece. Come back down 0-2 in MTL? Sweep the Flyers - would have been real easy to let the flyers get a game, not easy to sweep. Tampa Bay! The series winning goal was a drawn up play that was designed to beat the 1-3-1, a "coach

Tampa Bay! The series winning goal was a drawn up play that was designed to beat the 1-3-1, 100% coaching.
And Vancouver? The mind games and back and forth with Vigneualt (or however the **** you spell that pigs name). Again coming back down 0-2.
Seriously.
Yes Thomas was spectacular. Who is to say Julien had nothing to do with that?

In my book, a contender is someone who can get past the second round more than once in a span of 5 years.....He's a good coach, for a rebuilding team IMO. He would be a good coach for the NYI, or Columbus, or any piss team in the league. The bruins with the talent they have should be in the second and third round every year IMO, with CJ they can't. Kaspa is right, he rode TT all the way to the stanley cup. His coaching style doesn't work in the playoffs. Originally Posted by Seguin
