Well, we got one answer on Wednesday.
Shortly before 11:00 a.m., the Bruins announced that they have relieved Peter Chiarelli of his duties as General Manager.
What will come next is anyone’s guess.
Hours after the news broke on Wednesday, team President Cam Neely and CEO Charlie Jacobs met with the media to address everything from Chiarelli’s firing to Julien’s future to the state of the Bruins roster.
For the time being, Julien is safe as no decision has been made. But that all could change once a new General Manager is hired.
“It hasn’t fully been made, and we met with Claude this morning, Charlie and I, and we told him that we really believe that once we go through the exhaustive search to find the next general manager that we will leave it up to that GM to decide what he wants to do with our coaching staff,” Neely said during the press conference that lasted nearly 30 minutes.
