Sympathy for the (Ex) Devil

julien.jpg

I was around when the 2-seed Bruins

Tripped and fell to my team

Where was your hero when you needed him most?

He was hurt

Upper body injury

Pleased to meet you

Hope you guessed my face

But what’s puzzling you is why I

Was canned while in first place

    Haha! Nice!
    Julien is going to be good for the Bruins.

    Assuming that they even hire him. Seems a bit odd that all these reports leak out and then the Bruins remain without comment the day they were “supposed to” announce his hiring.

    Very clever!

    Maybe it was a trial balloon, like in politics? Naw.

    I’m still burning about the 2004 playoffs… assuming he’s hired it won’t be easy for me to accept the enemy in our camp; to accept the devil, if you will.

    Well, at least he’s only played a minor part in Canadiens history. It’s not like we’re hiring Guy Lafleur or Ken Dryden.

    Speaking of “enemies” (in a sense), ironically, the Bruins head coach that may have had the biggest part in “damaging” this franchise was Dave Lewis. He was the guy involved in the collision that resulted in the first reconstructive knee surgery for Gord Kluzak.

    Holy! Nice piece of history that was! Lewis was a career killer??

    The throwback bear logo is pretty cool. Just needs to be modernized a bit!
