    I'd wager that his job is probably safe for the next year, even if we get swept again.

    Good for Stotts! I am critical of him, but he's overall he's done a good job this year.

    On the opposite spectrum...I think Joerger got fired today because he didn't play Skal when he was with the Kings. That trade really came back to bite them last night.

    The trade wasn't the coach fault it was Divic that made the trade. But of the coach has to take some fault for not playing him. Oh yea I believe Divic got extension.

    obviously, the award doesn't factor demerits for a really ugly sports coat

    He didn’t say coach made the trade. He said he didn’t play the guy (which might have led to trade).

    You right he didn't make the trade I also said he didn't play him too. But that probably wasn't why he got fired though.

    Or bonus points for a nice homage to Jack Ramsay in the last game of the season.

    It was the ‘70s and there was no such thing as too much sartorial splendor for Dr. Jack.

    Regular season accolades are nice. Would be even nicer to get a win....even series win in the Playoffs. 11-24.....this is a career long thing.
