Yea but Vegas isn’t last in the NHL like St. Louis was, Vegas just had a bad string of losses due to poor goaltending and defensive mistakes (that’s on the players), St. Louis was picked by a lot of people to be in the conference finals and majorly underachieved last year prior to the coaching change Edited January 15, 2020 by KelownaCanucksFan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange firing for him in Florida too. you might be right, however the first guy to fire him did not last the year and Kelly McCrimmon was gifted a good team but has very little GM experience. McCrimmon interview is pretty underwhelming. edit, Kelly McCrimmon has lots of WHL GM experience and has been assistant with Vegas for the full ride. But sometimes guys have a different experience when faced with NHL talent, egos, and other GMs Edited January 15, 2020 by lmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nave Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Very dumb decision by Vegas. Their team has over-achieved because of coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck-lifer Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Have to think there's more to the firing besides performance. How quickly he's snapped up may help explain this, but in the meantime we have the longest serving coach in the pacific..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
