Here are a few coaches fired
midseason in recent years with pretty similar records:
The Penguins were 15-10-3 when they fired Johnston.
The Blues were 24-21-5 when they fired Hitchcock.
The Wild were 23-22-10 when they fired Yeo.
The Leafs were 21-16-3 when they fired Carlyle
The Bruins were 26-23-6 when they fired Julien
The Habs were 31-19-8 when they fired Therrien
The Senators were 11-11-5 when they fired MacLean
Also I get pretty annoyed when people pretend Gulutzan's record isn't being propped up by the fact that he has the most dominant 3v3 team in the NHL, who literally win games in OT where coaches do nothing but send out their six "fastest" players over-and-over. I mean just look at the above list and all the OTLs/SOLs for every above fired coach, whereas Gulutzan has had no issue with too many one point games.
