Miller unlikely to travel: After the game, Cassidy said he didn't believe Miller would travel with the team to Brooklyn for Thursday night's game with the Islanders.
"We don't want another kind of [illness], what happened before Christmas to go through the plane, so we'll evaluate him," said Cassidy. "If he is ready, then he will come in in the morning, and we will make a decision on the lineup with him tomorrow. Missed a couple days of practice, so right now, I'd say he is questionable. We'll make that decision [on Thursday]."
Julien appreciative of tribute: During the game's second television timeout, Julien received a tribute video and lengthy standing ovation from the TD Garden crowd. Boston's all-time winningest coach was grateful for the gesture.
"It's always something that you kind of dread a little bit because it's a little emotional, and at the same time, trying to keep your emotions intact there so you can coach a gameā¦I appreciate what they did for me," said Julien. "I've got nothing but good things to say about this organization that gave me the opportunity to spend 10 years here.
"At the same time I'm kind of happy it's over so we can move on now, but that doesn't mean you forget what's happened here. It's always going to be with you, but now I'm in another chapter of my coaching career, and I've got to think about that."
