Butchie finally gets his commuppance. The Caps have fired him as head coach and named assistant coach Hanlon in his place. Story here.
The message boards at the Caps site are just jumping. So much so that you can’t even get on them for very long. Personally, I am surprised by this news (a bit). I really thought we were stuck for the long haul. Apparently the situation had gotten so untenable in the relationship between the players and Butch that something had to give.
Farewell, Butch. You sure were cute to look at but not worth $85 a ticket. Me and the Universe send you lots of good luck vibes. I think you will need them.
Let’s Go Caps!!
I saw this coming, but not right now. The timing surprised me more than that action. Sorry Butch, shit happens.
