Marchand And Pastrnak Owe A Lot To Claude Julien

"He gave me an opportunity to play, dealt with me more than I think a lot of coaches would have, worked with me tirelessly," Marchand told the Bruins official website about his time with Julien. "Had plenty of conversations about how to act and how to be a good player, a good pro, how to learn the game and become a better player.

"He definitely gave me a huge opportunity and allowed me to grow into a better player."

"He's the one that I was given the opportunity to play in the NHL," said Pastrnak. "We had a bunch of meetings in the time I was hereobviously have a lot of good memories. He spent so much time with this organization and has given a lot."
