Coaching and management changes around the league

While I hope this is the first step on the road to recovery and all that it still doesn't really answer any questions. If this is a legitimate substance abuse issue, why not put him on leave as he gets treatment? Why the need to fire him immediately?

It's pretty obvious he did something. There's no way Dallas fires him if it is only an addiction issue. So while I think alcohol may have been a factor in whatever he did, it doesn't excuse it.
 
Yeah, something bad happened. But you know what stops bad things from happening? Recognizing the signs earlier and intervening. It's gapping up on the problem when it's in the neutral zone, not when it's in your net.

I remember really, really wanting the Leafs to hire Laviolette when the Flyers let him go (the Leafs still had Carlyle at this point). Always seemed like a very good coach, but Nashville's having a tough season and this is his 6th one there. Time runs out for every coach eventually.
 
The Preds have fired Laviolette.

Is he being introduced with a paper bag over his head at game time?
 
This is literally within a few days of Poile giving a quasi-vote of confidence.

Those comments have to be the worst in sports

I've been enjoying Yahoo Sports' twitter game lately.

To be fair to Hynes, he wasn't the issue in New Jersey anyway.
