Crazy to think that one win could have prevented this (either in the 2013 SCF or this past season). He's still a good GM, though. If it was a year later, I think it would be a perfect fit to bring him back to Ottawa.

Agreed, he's done an excellent job building that team. TBH, does anyone expect Boston not to bounce back next year?

[Matt the Aussie]

I've envied Boston's bottom 6 for a few years now - Kelly, Campbell, Paille etc. They missed Krejci big time and Eriksson had a very off-character season. But I worry about Chara who looks extremely slow these days...

Exactly what came to mind when I heard he was fired.

Agreed with everyone here - both that he's still a good GM and that it would be a good fit to bring him back to Ottawa.
