Canucks didn't fire Tocchet...he decided he did not want to stay and told them so 2-3 weeks ago.... they word it like it was their decision not to extend him (which ultimately it is), but in reality he basically chose not to continue there.
I knew he would be headed to Philthy.  Either that or Shitsburgh, but Philthy it is.  He has alot of history with Philly so I'm not surprised.  Jonesie is the pres. of operations there (which shocked me when I heard that couple years ago).  They overlapped 2 years together playing in Philly - both ending their playing careers the last 3 years spent in Philly.
Something must be little fishy in Vancouver.  They fired Boudreau badly 2-1/2 years ago then brought Tocchet in, and rumors to be quite a bit of turmoil in the locker room from reading stuff weeks ago.

Sullivan was fired from Shittsburgh and hired like the next day in NY (okay....it was 2 days).  Didn't expect him to struggle to find work.
I don't like that both NYR and Philthy both just got good coaches.

Shittsburgh hasn't hired a coach yet...I went looking and apparently they talked to Mitch Love (Caps assistant) as a possible

Too little too late, but Im fine with it. Eller is another (of many) who've done jack shit this post season.

100% eller hasn't done anything in quite some time, but I thought he actually played a better game last game...nothing to show for it.
(he did score THE Stanley Cup winning goal for us long ago)

Nice to watch some of these other games with two real teams playing.

Yes, watching the other teams play actually takes a little of the sting out of watching our series, because we are not anywhere near that level of play.
I guess I didn't give Dallas enough credit - they are now up 3-1 on Winnipeg.  Dallas goalie Oettinger was terrific last night.  Both teams had high level plays and the difference to me was the goalie.  Dallas did get 2 ppg, so Hellebyuck wasnt terrible.
