The St. Louis Blues have fired head coach Ken Hitchcock. Mike Yeo, who was expected to replace Hitchcock behind the bench next season, takes over.
Could Hitchcock be headed to Vegas? Sure sounds that way.

*******************************
In case you missed it among the 14 games being played last night...
Brad Marchand has slew-footed another player, with the intent to injure, or was it? The more I watch this play, the more I feel as though many out there will say, "He was looking away and unaware of the player."
Ok, but to feel that is true would require two conclusions...
1. That Marchand is completely playing hockey out of control and despite being a VERY good skater and pro hockey player he has absolutely no sense as where other players are.
2. You are giving the same Brad Marchand the benefit of the doubt. The Brad Marchand who just got off incredibly easy for an OBVIOUS attempt to injure via slew-foot a week ago.
Personally I am not seeing it, but please weigh in with our poll below.
