I would've left it alone had you simply said "agree to disagree". The "I'm not even going to bother responding to this" intro was a little too dismissive for my liking.
Arguing talent vs coaching is valid IMO. The Bs higher ups have made their decision 2 years in a row now in keeping Julien around.
Is it really even arguable that the B's don't have a serious lack of talent on D? Outside of Vancouver, they have the worst D on paper in the league. And goalie? Clearly Tuukka didn't have his best year, nor did our backups. If that's a coaching issue, it's not on Julien. The offense was top 5. Hard to blame Julien for anything there.
Look, I'm not holding Julien completely blameless. I just don't think he was front and center the problem here. With talent, he and his system have worked and, I believe, can continue to work. That is all.
Wasn't trying to be smug with the intro. Was trying to be brief, since you and I simply don't agree about this. Nothing more than that meant by it at all. If you took offense, I apologize because that wasn't the intention at all.
