I'm expecting the Bruins coach to be fired before Monday Morning (playoffs, sport)

For that horrible collapse to the Flyers. If Not then I will start applying to NHL coaching positios because it obviously takes no skill if that IDIOT is still employed after that collapse. What a Disgrace

Should the coach shoulder the entire responsibility for the collapse ? I'm sure that wasn't the game plan he told the players to follow ? Although, if I remember correctly wasn't he fired two years ago by Uncle Lou of the Devils 8 games prior to the playoffs when the team was in first place but Uncle Lou felt the team wasn't "playoff ready" ?

The Flyers had no business winning that series and he should not have a job any longer

Not sure about the logic that the Flyers had no business winning the series ? I'd sure be curious to hear some facts to support that statement. I suppose they had no business eliminating the second seed Devils in 5 games either ? The whole idea of a 7 game series is to allow the better team to win and thats apparently what happened......the ability to make adjustments that will allow you to overcome adversity and the defensive and offensive systems being employed by your opponent is what its all about and the Flyers did that better than the Bruins. Not only were the Bruins eventually outplayed but they were outcoached too. The coaching move that turned game 7 around was when Laviolette called a time out near the end of the first period and calmed his team down....after that it was ALL Flyers.
