Hired to be fired 2008-09
A compilation of the unlucky members of the NHL coaching and managerial fraternity, who found themselves outsourced in the 2008-09 season.
From the freshest of recruits, to the oldest in tooth of the ancient order of coaches they never know when the phone call or tap on the shoulder will come. Some survive through to the playoffs, others are gone before the season gets too far along.
We track the departed here.
