I wonder if they are still evaluating their options.

Boston lost nine of its last nine games this season to finish with a record of 42-31-9. "mentioned in paragraph"

Nice reporting.

Does this mean he isn't fired?

He isn't going to fire him live on TV.

If Claude shows up wearing a Senators hat we'll know something is up.

Chia did a press conference last year a couple of days before he got fired, doesn't mean Claude is safe.

 

[VanIsle]

They are going to take the tape from last year and just play it again.

Just photo-shopping a few things in and out, because how can the answers really be that different?

Give me one example, one , of a coach who have done an exit interview with his GM and then be fired the next day. Chiarelli situation was different. It came from the presidency.

 

[FribbleLine]

Looks like Claude is staying

Yeah it doesn't make sense. To me 90% says to me he is back, 5% retires and 5% got abducted by Aliens

If they held a pay per view type thing to see him fired in different ways based on how much they raise, they would be able to lower ticket prices:

0-1 million, simple, "Clode will not be coming back"
1-5 million, an apprentice special, "your fired", qued by dramatic music
5-10 million, WWE send of with a folding chair
10 million +, something that involves either flamethrowers of fireworks maybe both.....

Disclaimer: I like Julien, but he is not effective with his players right now. He has been awesome for the Bruins but the players are not repsonding so I think he should probably move on.

Julien back with a 10-15 games leash.

funny

find it odd that if he`s going to get the boot they`d even allow him to do this?

Different sport, but Felger and Mazz said Francona did a presser or two before getting fired by the Red Sox.

Clode

"Claude, can you talk about the disappointment of missing the playoffs for the second straight year?"

Claude: "Playoffs??? Who cares about playoffs ? I'm going to Disneyworld!"

"and I`m taking Talbot and Kelly with me"

Dave Lewis participated in a year end presser with Chiarelli at the end of the 2006-07 (not that I am comparing the two).

I never said he would get fired the next day, coaches get fired into the offseason all the time.

Different situation. Lewis was fired because Julien was available. If not, Lewis would have been the coach for a 2nd year. I guess that, if Sweeney, had a coach in mind, Julien would have already took the gate. If you add that Sweeney, Julien and "the tool" Neely were all present Monday at the garden, it makes no sense to fire him later when they could have done that Monday.

I couldn't resist.

I'll try to catch the presser tomorrow.

Are you on Twitter? If you follow @NHLBruins you'll get the news as it happens.

I'm shocked that he is probably coming back...I thought for sure he was gone

Don't buy that for a second.

If they didn't fire him after last season's debacle, I have every confidence he'll be back as the coach starting next season. Once attendance goes below 10K and concessions starts faltering, then you'll start to see major changes.
