Julien replaces Therrien

THE Montreal Canadiens have fired head coach Michel Therrien and hired Claude Julien as his replacement, the National Hockey League team said on Tuesday. Julien, who was fired as coach of the Boston Bruins last week, takes over a Montreal team that has seen its lead in the Atlantic Division diminish after a slow start to 2017. The decision to change coaches comes as the Canadiens, clinging to a six-point division lead, have lost six of their last seven games. Julien is entering his second tour of duty as head coach of the Canadiens after assuming the role from January 2003 to January 2006.
