“I would like to sincerely thank Michel for his relentless work with the Montreal Canadiens over his eight seasons behind the bench, including the last five seasons when we worked together,” Bergevin said in a release. “The decision to remove Michel from his coaching duties was a difficult one because I have lots of respect for him.

“I came to the conclusion that our team needed a new energy, a new voice, a new direction. Claude Julien is an experienced and well respected coach with a good knowledge of the Montreal market. Claude has been very successful as an NHL coach and he won the Stanley Cup. Today we hired the best available coach, and one of the league’s best. I am convinced that he has the capabilities to get our team back on the winning track.”

I expect almost instantaneous improvement of PK & Dzone coverage. There's now hope that Beaulieu might evolve into what Habs fans hope for.

I love how some fans on twitter didn't see this coming...have they been paying attention? Bergy could not risk not getting in the post season.

To paraphrase the late President Gerald R. Ford:

"Our long national nightmare is over"

nobody is getting fired....Bergy will pull a trade before opting to replace the coach

Great.....

Another defensive-minded recycled coach.....

Although, I much prefer Julien to Therrien....

I'm happy we changed coaches....but would have preferred a less defensive minded one....

I guess we have a French quota to fill....

all coaches are defensive minded, easier to keep a job that way

Translation: I'm no longer banging your wife's best friend so don't let the door hit you in the a$$ on your way out.

Who isn't?? Only Laviolette comes to mind, although the recycled part still applies.

I thought MT was going to get a chance coming out of the break.

Apparently they talked to the Bruins Sunday about it.

Probably just had to hammer out the details until now.

i feel we got cheated out of an epic post game meltdown....thank god for US politics
