Random Musings
Hitting The Post — First, please see WRT's programming note on tonight's Wild/Blues game. *Sean Avery...ho-boy. I had a couple thoughts about him, but then I ran out of care. He's on "ignore." *Sticking with the Stars - ex-Avery - little in hockey pleases this recovering North Stars fan more than seeing them struggle this season. While I'd have to admit that the thought of them winning the Tavares/Hedman sweepstakes is a tad galling, I'd still rather have them have to suffer first. Now all we have to do is to get the league to rescind their ill-gotten Cup for our vengeance to be ...

Chairman Mo in power again — TSN I finally manage to have some time (new job has been exciting so far, but it takes all my time)…and the Hurricanes decide to bring a huge step BACKWARD and bring back Paul bloody Maurice. And I’ve started smoking again. Don’t tell my doctor.

Hurricanes Head Coaching Change
The Power Play — The Carolina Hurricanes have made a surprising move and fired head coach Peter Laviolette. Okay, that wasn't the surprising part. His firing has been speculated about for weeks amid the Canes battle with consistency. Now here's the surprising bit. The replacement for Laviolette? None other than former Hurricanes, and Maple Leafs bench boss Paul Maurice. Back in 2003, the coaching change was the other way around as Peter Laviolette was hired after Maurice was fired 30 games into the season. Maurice, who resides in the Toronto area, has been attending university classes since being fired by the ...

Hurricanes Fire Laviolette and Re-Hire Maurice
Pension Plan Puppets — Hurricanes Fire Laviolette and Re-Hire Maurice Holy crap! What a move. Paul "The Space Cowboy" Maurice always talked about what a great relationship he had with Jim Rutherford but this is still a bit of a shock. Glove tap to Cory at CanesCountry for the heads up.

Peter Laviolette Fired by Carolina Hurricanes
NEW YORK ISLANDER FAN CENTRAL — Tsn.ca: Has reported the Carolina Hurricanes have fired head coach Peter Laviolette and replaced him with his predecessor in former Canes coach Paul Maurice. NYI Fan Central Comments: Given the recent article from the paper in Carolina that said he was almost fired and back to the summer when management waited well into the summer to make an announcement he was returning this seemed a matter of when, not if. Sing no sad songs for Peter Laviolette, he won a Stanley Cup and proved he is a top flight NHL coach and will be hired by another club. Mike Milbury saw something in him long ago and his judgement was correct ...

Peter Laviolette canned by Canes; Maurice is back in Carolina
Puck Daddy — If the playoffs started today, the Carolina Hurricanes would be in them. As of this morning, Coach Peter Laviolette would not.

Hurricanes fire Laviollete and replace him with Maurice
IllegalCurve.com — From TSN: Sources tell TSN the Carolina Hurricanes have fired head coach Peter Laviolette and in a unique about face, have replaced him with former Hurricanes head coach Paul Maurice. Read the entire article here. Not overly surprising that the Hurricanes let Laviolette go, considering his job was said to be in jeopardy over the summer.  It appears the Canes gave him the first quarter of the season to prove he deserved to belong and he must not have made the grade.  That said, I’m not sure how good the Hurricanes are anyways.  Laviollete obviously didn’t get the most ...

Everyone is getting tired of his act and most importantly his teammates and his teams owner is getting tired of his act. His main ally within the Stars organization was Brett Hull and Hull is now saying his antics of ...
