Coaches get fired, was not worth getting that butthurt over. 

Sabrefan quit this site over a call in the NHL and arguing it over and over with fans on here. So I'm not going to judge what fans decide to do.

You might not think it's worth it. If someone has already lack of faith with management and ownership, it doesn't take much to want to take a break or a change.

Sabrefan took unnecessary harassment over that and we lost a great poster because of it. Entirely different than jumping teams and staying here over a short term coach who wasn’t doing well.

Pretty sure it's not that he was fired, more of the way it was done. If the team knew weeks ago they were going to replace him. They should have made Yeo interm until Tik Tocc was available. It was a very unprofessional look, that overshadows the simple act of firing a coach. I just think it's one of many screwy moves this team keeps making. But like an idiot, I still support the team.

It could have been handled better, but not worth the dramatics imo.

It wasn’t the firing that pushed him over the edge. 
It was the hiring. 
I’m not sure why he’s still here though. 
Either you’re in or you’re out imo. 

No it was the firing and he using the hiring as a scapegoat/crutch 

 

Hence the grasping at straws to falsely label and slander Tocchet as a mob criminal.

He'll be back once he identifies the scumbag in the Kraken organization. 

Ron Franchise better get eyes on the back of his head. 
 

Also I hear Brandon Tanev hates turtles. 
 

Kraken also eat fish but live in the sea! 
 

Scumbags.

He's growing on me too.  Everyone liked Boudreau.  He's like your dad, you can hang out with him on the weekend and you want him to succeed.  Tocchet is like the older brother that you hated growing up cause he always beat you up.  But he went on to have a successful career in the sport that you love and now you want him to teach you everything he knows.  He won't do that without being a bit of a dick, in your face and maybe whack you across the head a couple of times.  But at the end of the day he will teach you how to be like him.

 

That's how I see it.  Petey seems to have gotten the message.  He looks like Peter Forsberg 2.0 out there.  Tocchet might be the best thing to ever happen to him.

 

One thing I remember about the interview he did after the game where Joshua got that goal, had the fight and was all over the ice.  He said he told Joshua that if he keeps playing like that he will be able to pay his mortgage payments for a long time.  So true.  These guys all have a short career.  They can run with it and be successful and make millions, so they can pay off their mortgages, or they can go through the motions, be out of the league in 3-4 years and have to go out and sell cars or houses for a living to pay the bills.  

Yes.
