Habs Watch - Julien Out; Gainey In
Stardate Unknown
Today, the Canadiens did something I have expected for some time now. They fired head coach Claude Julien and assistant Rick Green. After winning 12 of the first 16 games and sticking at the top of the conference, the Habs had a miserable run, winning only 7 times in the last 25 games. At the half-way point of the season, they have dropped to 10th in the conference.
The general manager Bob Gainey will take the helm, signing on Guy Carbonneau as an assistant. Carbonneau is slated to be head coach at the end of the season, a move I applaud! The Habs play San Jose at home tonight, so expect to see a revitalized team on the ice.
