Re: Didn't see this coming
My son said there was some internal friction/problems.....sounds like a power struggle with Bowman, which no way in hell he was winning ….has anyone any inside info? Hard to believe he's going to be unemployed for very long

Scotty Bowman still involved (Stan says just somebody he could talk to)
However, there is also an assistant coach named (couple others fired including Kevin Dineen). Asst. is 64 years old AND was an assistant to Scotty when he was coaching. Sure the new 33 y.o. coach said I'd really like that 64 y.o. Also Q resented that guy being around.
New coach has good credentials. 2nd round draft, Only about 50 NHL games (concussion problems).
Coached 4 yrs in Swedish League. Got his team advanced to a more elite league.
Hawks hired him and he has been coaching the Rockford Ice Hogs with good results. An analytic type guy. He was always going to get this- but thought would be later/
In my mind, should have shitcanned Bowman. Didn't do well last year and with cap space picks up a 39 y.o. forward, Cam Ward and a #7 defenseman.
Rosenbloom (Trib writer) said Bowman deals a bad hand to Q who takes fall with a joker team-SLOW. Think they were waiting for chance -and 5 game losing streak was it.
Carcillo (sure you remember him) "they looked at the guy directing the pawns and ignore the individual who put the pawns on the chess board"
Whether Q gets another job depends on ONE thing-if he wants one.
Landing places ;
St.Louis where he had a winning record (fans are already clamoring "Bring Q HOME)
Panthers- lot of ex HAwks
Florida -Dale Tallon is GM-drafted Kane & Toews and HIRED Q!
Edmonton Oilers - team with the kid now considered the best player in league (even Sid Crosby said so) CONNER McDavid
Buffalo: like Hawks in 2009- couple really good young guys and expected to be competitive REAL soon
