Icon45 Leafs Fire Dave Nonis and Peter Horachek

Nick Kypreos ‏@RealKyper 4m4 minutes ago
Major #Leafs changes. Sources say GM Nonis relieved of duties today. Also let go was coach Horachek and staff. Staios stays.

Leafs PR ‏@LeafsPR 1m1 minute ago The Maple Leafs announced the club has relieved GM David Nonis & Interim Head Coach Peter Horachek of their duties today.

Darren Dreger ‏@DarrenDreger 1m1 minute ago Leafs announce firing of Nonis,Horace, Spott, Dennis and St Croix. Staios remains. As per release.

Looks like they're cleaning house.

So, do Kessel, Phaneuf and Kadri follow them out the door on draft day?

Hey Leaves, let's not give the Oilers any ideas here.

No surprise . Don't think there is anything to worry about Nonnis coming to Calgary. There are no positions for him , unless Burke needs a driver/butler.

This is just the start. Some of the big name players will be traded at draft.

I would think Kessel is moved for sure.... Phaneuf is another one they will try to move

Really hope Babcock has the sense to steer clear of this gong show.

Wonder how Horachek is looked upon league-wide now. I like how he was not afraid to call out his team, and I like how he was demanding accountability. However, seemed that the Leafs took a nosedive under him.

steve simmons ‏@simmonssteve
Nonis. Carlyle. Poulin. Loiselle. Farrish. Cronin. Gordon. Spott. Horachek, St. Croix. All good people let down by underperforming players.

Gold...

What a bunch of idiots. Horachek was obvious, but Nonis? If they were going to fire the guy they should have done it eons ago before he sewered the team at the trade deadline.

And yet....somehow, MacT and Lowe will survive a season which saw them get a total of 19 ROWs in a season.
