Claude Julien will be back for the Boston Bruins as head coach next season.
CSN New England’s Joe Haggerty tweeted Friday morning general manager Don Sweeney confirmed this speculation from the NHL combine in Buffalo. Great for Claude Julien! And so begins … Claude Julien Watch 2015-16.
When Sweeney was hired as general manager he called Julien, who has been with the team since 2007-08, the team’s head coach “as of today.”
The full quote:
“I have some things that I want to sit down with Claude and go through in a very orderly fashion as to where I think things need to change and what direction we need to change as a group," Sweeney said.
