    Pittsburgh Penguins Fire Coach Dan Bylsma

    They are also bringing in Jim Rutherford, former general manager for the Hartford Whalers/Carolina Hurricanes for about 20 years, as the new GM to replace the recently fired Ray Shero.

    I guess a change was needed but I don't think the Pens problems were really Bylsma's fault and I think the Pens might regret this down the road. Any team in the NHL looking to make a coaching change would be a fool not to consider this guy.

    All his fault. Players arguing with him, dont respect him. Worst coach in the league cant even win a playoff series as a favorite, cant win a game 7.

    MOST OVER RATED THING IS HEAD COACHING...john muckler was fired from nyr as was phil espositio one ruled the oilers to cups and the other was a great scorer in his day. Butch goring fired and will go down as the piece the isles needed to win the cups. Flyers r led by a cup winning coach who won with the canes and he was a disaster nhl player played 2 seasons..lol. Fred shero got the 2 sweidsh players that was gonna win nyr the cup and failed. Herb Brooks the olympic winning coach had the rangers look like figure skaters and couldnt beat the isles toughness and checking. Al Arbour 4 cup winning coach, coached isles after all those players left and he was avg. Hitchcock won cup ith dallas yrs ago and was fired by columbus and a failure elsewhere. Wayne Gretzky was best player ever not even close...look at his coaching record 4 500 season as coach. Without the players god could coach and lose. Now look at la kings..darly sutter looks 3 yrs away from a nursing home/aheimers and now hes a genious..over rated horse crap 1000000 percent
