Coach Killers

The Ottawa Senators have done it again. 3 and soon to be 4 coaches in two seasons.

After only 48 games into this season they have fired former Team Canada head coach Craig Hartsburg. Instead of getting to the core of the issue and trading some of those lazy underperforming big contract players they've decided to put some extra polish on the same old stinky product that they put out on the ice each night. 

GM Brian Murray has now gone through 2 coaches as well as sitting in as coach himself for the remainder of last season and the playoffs in which the Sens were swept in 4 games.

Hartsburg will be replaced by minor league coach of the Binghamton Senators, Cory Clouston for the remainder of the season.

Ray Emery Shenanigans

Ray Emery is no longer in the NHL but still making the news for his off ice shenanigans. No wonder Ottawa got rid of him. Not that the sens are any better this year but it looks like this guy doesn't learn. If there was an NHL team that was interested in signing him next season, they are thinking twice after today.
