yes we can nucks Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Should the Canucks hire Julien as their next head coach if they fail to make the playoffs? Julien's an experienced winning coach in the NHL. He's respected around the league as a great motivator and tactician. He's the winningest coach in Bruin history. He's won a Stanley Cup and has a gold medal at the international level. And of course he's got that connection with Jim Benning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuman491 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I think its a good idea. Ray Ferraro said a few weeks back that he is one of the top 5 coaches in the NHL and won't stay out of work a long time. As much as he makes me think about 2011 we did bring in Mike Keenan, so its been done before. If Claude Julian would be interested I think the Canucks should give him a hard long look.

Sygvard Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I do think he is genuinely a really good coach, and would probably make us better. I don't think he ends up here though. He will get a few offers, and I can't see him choosing us at the moment. Plus, I am still irrationally biased against him because Bruins. Let me keep my petty hate.

But since he was on the bruins and was a knob in 2011 he can suck me where the sun don't shine I think he will receive much better offers than that.

Warhippy Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Why the hell would we do that? Gallant/Green Gallant knows Gudbranson and he knows offensive D structure. He is also capable of not only developing youth but committing to them too Green knows our structure our prospects our plans. Why the hell would we get Julien....

Lancaster Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Because the last experiment with Keenan/Messier worked out great. Perhaps we should also get Chara or Marchand as well. Then rip the "C" of Henrik's sweater and give it to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 No thanks. Guy's a classless hypocrite and is a major reason the Bruins are such a disgrace to the sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you know we are only a coach with a bigger stick away from being a contender? Gallant/Green makes to much sense and therefore has to be thrown out. Consider yourself lucky for not being banned!

Johnny Shotgun Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Tough choices promote a coach from within who has shown success at developing young players but no coaching experience at the NHL level. Many a promising NHL rookie coach has crashed and burned. Or go with an old war horse who has had success at the NHL level. As stated he might not even want to join this organization he'll get other offers. Money could be a big incentive if Aquilini wants to pony up. Me I'd take a run at him and offer Green an assistant position at the same time. Face it Willie just ain't getting it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are kind of in the same spot the Bruins were, when they hired Julien. We have several talented you prospects coming up, and they deserve a quality coach.
