Carlyle fired

[Kin]

And for the record the only other option is actually Spottachek

Well, that or PeteSteve.

Sporacle? I know how, exactly, but I'm going with it.

SpottaHor?

Lord I apologize... And be with the starving Pygmies down in New Guinea

OK, so my big prediction was one day late.  I am mailing in my Nostradamus card.

Dion Phaneuf bursts into Carlyle's empty office. "Coach, great news, we all *finally* figured out how to play your system! Uh... coach?"

My gut feeling is that Horachek will get these guys playing more organized defense.  I think FLA fired him too quickly.

Bozak centres JVR and Kessel. Smith, Clarkson and Komarov, 2nd line.
McKegg , Panik , Booth and Ashton round out your 4th line. #TMLtalk

Spott-Chek/Horaspott out!

It's just one practice so I won't get too worked up about it, but if step one was firing Randy, then step two is getting Bozak out of the 1C spot.

I imagine it'll take a couple weeks (especially with the injuries down the middle), but, that's what I expect, too. I don't know what that will mean in terms of wins and losses, but, I definitely expect to see the team playing better quality hockey by the ASG. And, if that doesn't happen, I expect to see some significant pieces moved out in the summer.

One practice with both Kadri and Holland out with injuries. Options are limited right now.

DGB = sad attempt at humour....
We all saw it coming so no big surprise...who they bring in next should be interesting...

Kadri was back at practice, on a line with Winnik and Santorelli. But again, yeah I'm not too too worried about that yet.

Listening just now to Nonis' remarks (which I assume are mouthpiecing Shanahan) on no NMCs, I wouldn't be surprised to see some moves before then.

Maybe, but I don't expect it. Trading players with significant terms and cap is hard to do mid-season and the return is usually better in the summer. Unless guys are being moved purely for picks and prospects, I don't expect much of significance to happen.

Significant trades basically only happen now at the draft.

This, please.

I guess I should be excited but I am not. Jsut been beaten up for so many years. I got real excited when Burke was brought in.. Thought maybe within 5 years of that we would contend.. nothing. Wehn Wilson got fired Iw as very excited... same old thing.. So I am not too excited over this... I need to remain even keel.. Sick of getting hopes up and being let down. Pat Burns was probably the last time I got real excited and it worked
