Yep, Monumental wanting a young coach they can control and market assuredly had a lot to do with that

Kings fired Stevens today,imao similar step would be needed for our team too in near future if we continue to play in same level of performance !

I doubt that happens. Reirden is the guy they wanted.
Still can't figure out why they wanted to get rid of Trotz. DC's assessment is probably correct.

Lets be clear here. They did not get rid of Trotz. By the terms of his contract if he won the Stanley Cup he received an automatic 2 year extension with a roughly 500,000 dollar per year increase. Trotz wanted a longer term and more money so he resigned and the Caps accepted his resignation. I suppose they could have refused to let him go but that would not have been a good situation.

Management could’ve offered him something closer to what he wanted. That’s what we are upset about not happening. It’s not like Ted and Co. couldn’t afford it, and coaches don’t count towards the salary cap.
