The talking points were there.
#Habs Julien described tonight’s game as frustrating, unacceptable and embarrassing. Felt his team got sloppy after Deslaurier’s fight which gave AZ energy.

Sure it’s easy to call out Nicolas Deslauriers. But I mean, what in the world did Claude Julien expect? Here’s a guy who was desperate to return to the NHL. He would presumably do anything to stay and make his mark. Then you are surprised or upset when a fight he has gives the other team energy?
