Vanflyer Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Wow- that was fast! It also certainly does grind a halt to the Ryan trade talks. Supposedly either one of them were going to go because of operational limitations (ie. Ducks are still on the hook for tweedle dees contract). The question for me would be why Boudreau? Not that I have a bad opinion about him, but I can't think that they weren't looking at other candidates for a while and then all of a sudden Boudreau gets canned and he is Anaheims man?? Wow.

The real question is which is which......LOLmaybe that was the intentionI'm not that surprised, firing the coach is generally happens first and is more preferable than trading away one of the key players to a team. So now where does Carlyle go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phlfly Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Only sad thing is Ducks is not called Mighty Ducks anymore, otherwise Bruce Boudreau had a perfect fit there, as known commercial poster in DC.Seriously, I think it was stupid move by Ducks. Just to replace with somebody, is not way to make your team better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
