Todd McLellan will always carry the stink of playoff failure anyway.

Crazy. We've had a team go from 1st to barely making the playoffs and another from the basement to one of the best in the league all in one season.

[HKSR]

Crap... LAK about to get a coaching bump for the 2nd half.

[Rekker]

Wow. Mc is a hell of a coach. My prediction, Berube in LA, Keefe fired at some point, maybe this off season and Mc to Toronto.

I don't know know if they have the horses.  Anyway I'd love the canucks to play them in the first round.  I think it would be cathartic to take them out after they dumped us on their first cup run.

[Fanuck]

What, they think they're gonna go on a streak like Coilers or something......?

[Reg]

Man coaching is a tough gig. The players need to look in the mirror. I hope the Kings make the playoffs  so that they can knock the Oilers back to earth.

Coaches are hired to be fired

 

He's a solid coach, wonder where he ends up

 

Interesting times in LA

McLellan will be hired by Toronto as soon as they go on another losing streak and fire Keefe.

[DrJockitch]

PLD strikes again!

[Boudrias]

PLD strikes again. This guy is a roach, I mean, coach killer. 

[24K]

Kings betting it all in that coaching bump. 

[Provost]

This is one of those coaching firings that is 100% on the GM.  

[Plaguez]

Fired because of GM's terrible trade.  PLD is a flaming bag of dog shit on the front step.  Big, strong, talented center that has zero work ethic.  The only coach that will get him to work will be the one to send him to the AHL for a full season.  Unfortunately he makes way to much for any owner to agree to bury that money. What a waste.

Yep he was my first choice that draft, good player when his head is in it but man is he not worth the headache imo. 

[Wing]

My first ever new topic post and it's not about the Canucks  What a disastrous trade for PLD and the big fat contract they signed him to... 

 

"LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Kings fired coach Todd McLellan on Friday and named Jim Hiller the interim coach for the rest of the season"

Wonder if he's he guy who ends up in Ottawa, Jacques Martin ain't a long-term solution

All in the last month

[Mike Vanderhoek]

BIG mistake by the Kings here. Yes heads have to roll but not the right move.

[Jimmy]

PLD, do they really need him?

[gwarrior]

Wow. Didn't see that coming.
