Not a shock.

And the new GM will fire Hiller.

Not a shock, but I wouldn't have been shocked if he stayed either. Not a terrible GM.

The coach was to blame through and through for the series loss. I guess the GM wears that too, but the coach should have been first to go.

The GM has seen his team lose to the Oilers 4 years in a row with multiple coaches and multiple rosters.

Ya no I got it, just seems like that’s always the auto go-to for recommendations.

I think he was pretty terrible. Very bad at best.

Terrible coaching hires and some truly terrible trades and signings, seemingly getting more terrible the higher profile they are.

Yah and Hiller should be on the chopping block next. The PLD trade sunk the Kings.

Would think that LA would be enticing enough to get a premier GM and coach. Sutter time? *ducks*

Four straight seasons losing in the first round to the same team. Coaches have changed, roster some changes. Blake was the last stone left unturned.

Whats Goldberg up to these days?
