The Wild have one win in their last 14 games (plus 2 OTL). They were solidly in a playoff spot on January 9. Now, they're tied with Arizona and Vancouver, three points out of the last Wildcard spot.

They haven't won a home game in 2016.

Seems like the Wild are losing every game now. I guess they had to do something.

Wonder if Randy Carlyle ends up there....him and Chuck Fletcher go way back IIRC.

I feel like Yeo should have been let go a long time ago.

Let's trade them last year's Jack Adams winner. The Flames come out ahead.

Mike Yeo is a horrible idea.
No trade!

With a team like that, they should be a contender

Yo Yeo, yo gone.

Amazed he wasn't fired after his infamous meltdown - it was inevitable.

He's probably the best available although I was hoping he'd be Hartley's replacement whenever that happens.

I would love to see the look on your face if anyone else was coaching this team. Hartley has done a fantastic job with what he has to work with.

There are at least 15 coaches in the NHL that I'd love to see coach the Flames.

At least 18 months too late on this. Bad coach.
