Really, compared to some topics, this really doesn't have much twitter attention.

Yup. I am not on Twitter/Facebook (because I am a luddite; apparently a wise luddite), but I can imagine plenty wanted Mitch Marner fired (into the sun, I get that his employment is not like most of us) after the last playoffs. Ditto for every coach and manager that ever existed.
Flames fired Peters. Because of "the mob"? Justified? Who cares. He was canned and compensated according to his contract. Many, many have suggested BT should be canned. So far the Flames haven't fired BT and I am guessing they don't really care what the mob thinks.
I don't get the immoral stance made by some. (To be clear, I have no formal philosophical training). It can't be causing harm to others, as any firing would likely cause harm. As another poster noted,
getting the job probably caused harm to others. In addition, I have a hard time understanding the alternative. Management can't have the authority to fire someone for bad reasons or no reasons at all, so we then give that responsibility to government? Courts? Random Jay?
