Last night, at the Board of Governors meeting, we asked if there were any investigations underway for abuse/racial comments that we were not aware of. The answer was no. Whatever happened with Jim Montgomery in Dallas, it does not fall under that umbrella.

Some off-duty conduct perhaps? Something criminal? Only other thing I can thing of is some sort of theft from his employer?

Well that is what you would expect them to say.

The timing is suspicious as hell. Bettman comes out and says teams that hide issues will be disciplined, and not even 24 hours later a coach gets fired.

Clearly one has something to do with the other.

What, no rampant speculation about what he did? What's become of you, Calgarypuck?

Why bother speculating when we all know it's a result of large scale cocaine trafficking.

Now theres a under-rated and under-utilized motivational tactic!

"Play better or I'll have sex with your wife!"

Him and Radulov have had a lot of issues so far this year, including Radulov being a healthy scratch just 5 days ago.

My initial thought was something happened between those two. But then they said it wasn't abuse so..who knows.

I was out with someone over the weekend who played WHL hockey in the 80s. Oh my god, some of the stories. Eye popping.

Sounds like something outside the locker room. I'm thinking it's in the range of gambling, sexual harassment, etc that they could terminate him with cause.

It's not that clear to me - I read it as a little more carefully worded and saying this firing did not fall under the "umbrella" of the new procedures. Just like Peters didn't. But that doesn't exclude that kind of conduct, it just means that it wasn't treated under the process. At the same time, maybe it's totally unrelated conduct - some sort of criminal behavior, gambling stuff like Tocchet, etc.

Source says Montgomery’s “unprofessional conduct” took place while employed by the Stars. Montgomery was hired by Dallas in May, 2018.

I don't think it needs to be made public, but I'm guessing someone will leak the dirt at some point.

Well that seems likely. He is being fired, unlike Peters.

Yeah, if he is being fired for cause, then I suspect it is unrelated to his coaching conduct, which seems to be a much more difficult to support from a legal standing.

... which, I suppose, is not actually clear at this point.
