Completely concur here. Gainey is lucky he still has a job IMHO. Given that Squid is now out the pressure to DO ANYTHING to help les habitants must be enormous!

I think Sutter (Darryl) will lose his job as well this season.

At least for a day, Burkie appears to be a winner. Toronto blanks the Devils 3-0. Three stars of the game? Giguere, Phaneuf and Sjostrom. :D
