Wow that's a shocker. I don't understand how the Islanders are going to be better with another coach. That's a team that overachieved because of Trotz. This is fantastic news for teams that are looking to hire a new head coach.

Damn, I love Trotz. Best NHL coach (along with Sutter) in my opinion.
Some team will see a big jump next year.

I'm guessing he goes to Philly.

Back to back ECF's only to lose to the eventual SC winners, then a season where your team starts with a 13 game road trip and suffers injuries all year and you miss....get fired.

Tough gig.

FAN was speculating he could go to the Jets as he is from Manitoba and will basically have a job for life as they rarely if ever make changes

This. And for the trivia buffs, the first game in the new arena was a loss to the Flames (5-2) and Brad Richardson scored the first goal in the new arena.

He was born in Winnipeg but Dauphin is his hometown and where he spent his day with the Cup. He probably wouldn't mind only being a few hours from home though.

Apparently he's also looking to get into management. Wonder if the Jets can offer him that too.

But yeah, like every other big free agent, he'll likely end up in Vegas.

Who according to many Oilers fans should be in the running for the Jack Adams despite only coaching like 35 regular season games.

Tough gig.
And, I am going to post this again - playoff rounds in the last 3 years:

9 TBL
8 BOS
7 VGS
7 NYI
6 DAL
6 CAR
6 STL
6 COL
6 MTL

Only TBL and BOS with more.
