So it’s been about an entire year since Claude Julien was hired and so I think it’s a fair time to properly evaluate him.
I want to keep this fairly short and to the point. I am more than aware that our team is horrible, and near the bottom of the standings, but I think Claude has actually done a pretty good job as far as player development.
I want to focus on Galchenyuk because it seems like Therrien never was able to get the best out of him and he’s only the second coach to ever get his hands on Chucky. This year we’ve seen a more motivated and defensively responsible chuck. He’s improving leaps and bounds every month.
But it’s not just him, Gallagher has also found a new gear to his game. Hudon, while a very good player is finally coming into his own.
Julien is giving our rookies the most amount of opportunity to our young guys that I’ve ever seen in a long time. He uses his players to their strengths and doesn’t shy away from using his young talent if the situation is needed.
He’s handled the media very well in such a bad season and has never talked bad about a particular player. I think the young guys respect him a lot.
I’m excited to see how he can mold our future talent into excellent two way players.
