They always say the Jack Adams is a curse.
If he did it, I'd say it would put to rest any ideas that Tre is planning on jumping ship in the summer. It could still cost him his job if they crashed and burned, but it wouldn't be a move from a guy who's already thinking ahead to his next job.

I have a feeling that if a coaching change happened, it would be a promotion from within just like when Peters was let go. I can't see them going for a A-lister while still paying Sutter over the next couple of year.
Muller seems like a likely candidate seeing as he has NHL head coaching experience. Mitch Love would be a possibility as his stock seems to be rising. I wouldn't be surprised to see him poached by another teams for at least an assistant role in the near future.
It's too bad that teams couldn't send down and call up coaches like they do players.
