There will be no new outside coach hired unless they can bring back Darryl on a bargain bin deal.

You likely don't need to offer anywhere near $5M.
Montreal is paying it anyway, so they are probably happy if another team will pick up $1 or $2M of it.
The question is: would Julien take a rest-of-season job to see if he is a good fit with the new team?
