Could the Red Wings be the first team to fire their coach this year?
On the latest episode of Daily Faceoff Live, Tyler Yaremchuk and Frank Seravalli discussed whether Derek Lalonde is on the hot seat this year in Detroit.Frank Seravalli:
So I actually took that out of the final cut but I do think that Steve Yzerman for one is feeling a little bit of heat. This is year five of the Yzerplan, they need to take a step forward. I also think that he was pretty unhappy how last season played out and the comments Lalonde made when he was on TV for Sportsnet during the playoffs that the Lightning had to come out and refute.
I think he was probably not thrilled to be in that situation, not to make too big a deal out of that but its pretty rare to see second-year coaches end up getting the gas pipe. So I doubt that it happens, I wasn’t bold enough to put that in. But what’s really interesting about this is this year on the coaching front is that I don’t think there are many guys who enter the year on the hot seat, that it was kind of hard to pinpoint one in particular.
