Columbus Blue Jackets announced that they are firing head coach Pascal Vincent.
Here's the statement of Don Waddell :
"As I spent time with Pascal over the past few weeks, I found him to be an outstanding person and smart hockey coach who worked very hard last year under trying circumstances, but I believe a change behind the bench is in our team's best interest." «On behalf of the organization I want to thank Pascal for his work ethic, professionalism and contributions during his three seasons with the Blue Jackets.»
With Vincent as coach, Columbus had a record of 27-43-12 and finished last in the Metropolitain division.
As of today, no name has came out on who will replace Vincent, but there are more than a few candidates who need a job.
