Kings Fire Hiller

[VCRW]

No idea what comes next but this move had to be made. The timing didn’t matter.
I liked Hiller. I hoped he would do well. But this team did not play well and the Coach gets the blame. A story as old as time.

I don’t think we should place this all on Hiller though. These players have gotten two coaches and a GM fired. That’s where the ultimate responsibility lies. Not to absolve Hiller. This team has been underperforming all season. The coach is accountable when that’s the case.

I do like Greene being part of this interim group. His history shows that he clearly was a very valuable part of the organization and the Cups.

This current team core has definitely had a rough run with coaches. But Kopi and Drew have already been part of quitting on 4 coaches. 4! Murray, Sutter, Stevens, and McClellan. Would this now make 5?

 

[What party?]

I do this whole no screens on Sunday and had to wait for a disturbance in the force to alert me, it was as if a million fingers typing in terror were suddenly silenced. I feel something wonderful has happened.

Too high to process this information, using star wars quotes as cheap laugh/crutch. Totally hacky, and I love it.

We hired a DJ to celebrate--er--replace him? Neat.

More exciting is bringing Matt Greene back to the family. His strength, character and judgement were a huge part of the Cup years. Welcome home, Matt! He will bring a much needed voice behind the scenes.

This is actually interesting news. Light a fire under they asses.

If Blake was still here, he would have made this move sooner. He would have given the new coach a 5 year contract before he proved himself, but that is besides the point.
