How do all of these coaches get fired when their teams aren't even that bad, yet Detroit keeps riding it out with Blashill?!?!?!? What world are we living in????

 

[DopeyFish]

I was literally cleaning up shit as Therrien was fired, amazing.

Cake boss 😍 lamaroo

Your team ain't that good.

 

[Red_Man]

This is the best day

Therrien/Julien is quite the surprise. All the messaging emanating out of MTL for last days/weeks has been no chance of a coaching change.

McKenzie says he doesn't think Bergevin is contemplating a coaching change, but I also think if he were to ever do it, there would be no leak of any kind. Julien being available has to be tempting, unless his plan has always been to go to Muller.

First round in the East is going to be fucking nuts this year.

No coach will fix you.

 

[Line_HTX]

HOLY SHIT, THEY ACTUALLY FIRED THERRIEN

 

[Wingfan19]

I wasn't implying they were. Better teams are firing coaches, so why isn't Detroit firing theirs since they're worse?

THE DREAM SCENARIO

 

[Kave_Man]

For once to be fair to Dreger, nobody saw this coming it seems.

Every insider I have on twitter seems totally shocked.

Jack Capuano is looking for work I heard

HAHAHAHA IMAGINE

Which is a bit odd, given the GM-players only meeting that happened just a few days ago.

edit: What's the price on Claude? A 2nd?

Wells shit, he finally got the boot. Habs fans must be jumping for joy right now.

I find this firing REALLY amusing - bahaha

OH SHIT

Congratz Habs-GAF, damn that was some swift course of action there

I think everyone is shocked because this happened suddenly. Like, Montreal asked for permission and hired him the same day, or else it would have started leaking out and the usual insiders would have at least heard "rumblings".

 

[Coldnoodle]

The potential first round and second round matchups.

 

[calder]

The best part is going to be when Julien sees Weber in practice and heaves a big sigh.

 

[Kifimbo]

Last desperate move by Bergevin. If it doesn't work, he is gone.

Also, Carey Price might be responsible for this.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

I think everyone is shocked because this happened suddenly. Like, Montreal asked for permission and hired him the same day, or else it would have started leaking out and the usual insiders would have at least heard "rumblings".

It also helps that people thought he was safe after they traded Subban.

Why would Detroit want to eat his salary when they won't make the playoffs this season under any coach?

Feels like they didn't even need to meet him. Just asked for permissions, Bruins said yes and they just gave him the job.

Not even a report of "hey hearing Habs asked for permission to speak to Julien"

Also s urprised Bruins would give permission.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Lol Bruins. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

 

[Solo]

This is seriously the best news in Habs land in years. It's a brave new world, gentlemen. Hold on to your butts.

 

[IcyBlueStrawberry]

It was obvious Therrien wasn't working out, but I honestly didn't expect him to actually be fired. If the Bruins don't fire Julien I think there's a 0% chance this happens.

I also think Price's "identity" comment kind of sealed the deal.

We'll need to arrange a secret backup thread to move to when the playoff thread gets napalmed. We'll make a OT Community thread about something innocuous no one would click on, like Canadian TV shows or an Ottawa GAF social meetup.

Everyone who roots for an Atlantic playoff team get your alt accounts set up now.

Gallant sounds like a French name. I mean he has to know at least a little Quebec speak, right?

Assistant coach under Therrien. He was a no go.

Bob Hartley and Patrick Roy.

There are no Penguins fans here during the regular season either.
