Slappy Pappy posted:Chara would look really good at left wing. Plus, I'm sure Oates would have tons of good advice for Rask. "Tukka, stop playing those angles - just sit deep in your net and react, you know like Lundqvist does. Let the puck hit you. It's not that hard." Well he does know a lot about goaltending and that seems to be an issue for the Bruins this year. Clearly a really good fit!

I was doing a little reading/watching on reactions to the Julien firing, and Craig Button basically laid it out really well: The Bruins play the right way but don't have the talent to make it work, and that's not Julien's fault.

Dipietro's hip problems forced him to try and adopt a new style as more of a standup goalie and he could not make it work.

I mean having the best goalie in the world is so horrible because he could get injured. Hey look, if Dallas stapled Lehtonen and Niemi together they might almost be as good as Price, if Price was on day four of a four day bender and had lost feeling in his catching hand.

ThinkTank posted:I realize I'm opening a can of worms here, but what exactly is the problem with Therrien? Aside from last year (which Price missed most of) his point percentage in his 2nd stint with the Habs hasn't been below .610 for the season. Is there some major malfunction that I'm missing? Sure he seems to play favourites, sideline youngsters and harbour grudges, but what coach doesn't do that? Who would be a better replacement than him? PK Subban

Willie Desjardins is not the worst coach Vancouver has ever had but that's because Vancouver has had Marc Crawford, Mike Keenan and John Tortorella.

According to TSN Montreal only asked for permission to talk to Julien on Sunday and the deal got done today. Either Moulson or Pac/Price told Bergevin to dump Therrien because I would find it difficult that Bergevin would do something this fast on his own.
