Aren't they trying to fire the POTUS right now? It's just a much more difficult process. NHL coaches get fired all the time for lots of different reasons. Removing the president takes years of litigation. Also, note that the president is the boss and he has fired several people underneath him.
It was much more difficult for the NBA to get rid of Donald Sterling, even though his racist actions were significantly worse than Peters' over a longer period of time, because he was the owner of the Clippers, not an employee. Basically, they had to find him doing something that was actually illegal.
