It's silly to speculate but given Nill has been the GM in Dallas the whole time, I suspect this was something before Montgomery got there. So either U of Denver or the USHL team he coached.

Nill has a press conference in about an hour. Doubt he will go into specifics but will be interesting if he does.

You have no clue what the conduct was, but you are passing judgment. You are right, that is a joke.

This is not a well thought out response.

Seeing as we have no details on this, I can only assume you’re basing your assessment on the Peters, or maybe the Crawford situation?

So are you saying that Peters shouldn’t have been held accountable for his racist act? Or physical abuse?

Let's please not diminish this in the process of trying to clean up the culture around the game.
Ahhh dude It was a joke I have no idea what this is all about I'm the kind of guy that will tell a joke at a funeral. I just want to hear the details.

News Update

Pierre LeBrun @PierreVLeBrun
I’m told the NHL was aware of the situation with Jim Montgomery even before Gary Bettman met the media here last night to announce the league’s 4-point plan, but that Montgomery’s dismissal does not fall under the auspices of that plan. Not related to it apparently.

So, what happened? Any idea what Montgomery did to prompt Dallas to take such severe action? No? Then maybe jumping to conclusions is not the best reaction here.

I'm looking at the big picture, the changes made prior to this, what happened today and what will happen moving forward.

Except one was talking about this firing (you) and one was talking about the league wide direction (toonage). So, you are incorrect.

News Update

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Another source familiar with the situation says the Dallas Stars really had no choice and also says this is non abuse related.

How about we find out what happened before jumping for joy or being outraged?
