The Florida Panthers on Friday fired coach Kevin Dineen and named Peter Horachek the club's new interim coach.
Also fired were Dineen's assistant coaches, Gord Murphy and Craig Ramsay.
"I've been stewing on it for a long time," Panthers general manager Dale Tallon said during a conference call. "It's never easy. We don't make rash decisions. We made decisions, we assess the future of the franchise and where we're at currently and with many discussions with our ownership group and our hockey operations group, we came to the decision and decided this was the best course of action."
