He really seemed to over react to losing in the first round in that first year after the lockout. He fired himself because he thought he wasn't a good coach for the new nhl is how it seemed to me.
I also think he became a crappier GM once he was no longer a coach. His GM moves while a coach were good. He seemed to get progressively worse as a GM as he became further and further removed from the dressing room.
It really does make you wonder what could have been.
