According to the Toronto Sun, the Ottawa Senators have fired general manager John Muckler. Muckler wouldn't discuss the issue with the paper, directing all inquiries to Senators owner Eugene Melnyk. "I haven't been told anything," Muckler told the Sun when asked about potential changes.
Seems kinda odd that a guy that just helped take a team to the cup final would get the Axe.
And a guy that old too. If they were going to fire him, give him the dignity to say he's just "retiring" and then a few months later, say he'd like to come out of retirement if he so desired. Thereby avoiding the whole firing.
Muckler Fired. Says Toronto sun
