Jim Nill said will not discuss the incident out of respect for those involved. Did say it had nothing to do with the recent points from the NHL BOG meeting. Also said no other employees involved. There was no criminal investigation involved

...only their wives. Who may or may not be prostitutes. And he may have been gambling at the same time (called "multitasking").

Said the team played a soft game. All of the players had to go hide in their alone places.

this might be true...
I mean it's clearly not hockey related...doesn't relate to any abuse, doesn't involve any employees or current/former players
This is clearly a personal conduct thing, not abuse related, not drug related (or would also fall into some help/addiction program).

Sad, great young coach talent gone to an early political correct grave.
- Landsbergfan

..... it's a non abuse related matter , nothing to do with politics by rather work area rules and conduct.

You're skipping the "no criminal investigation" part.

Unless he made a side trip to the Bunny Ranch last time they were in Vegas

Stars players said they were not told what happened with Jim Montgomery


Probably because he was betting on them

Everyone is going to be really curious how a man loses his job for something that's non-criminal and unrelated to anyone in the organization for which he works. There's very little left other than him doing something that a PR department thought some potential customers would find offensive.

Sorry, did I hurt your inside feelings too?

Babcock was fired because his team sucked. The other stuff came out afterwards.

Right. Point being he was fired without any criminal or team-related abuse incidents.

Maybe he had a relationship (affair) with somebody who works for the Stars and it came out.

My feelings are just fine thank you.

May I suggest you checking yours? For every coach firing you come here whining in the name of freedom of speech or whatever.

Nill said that Monty's offense had "no connection to past or present players." A poor performing team is definitely related to present players. Babcock was fired for on the ice job performance as the vast majority of coaches who get fired are, this is clearly unrelated to job performance. "A material act of unprofessionalism" whatever TF that means.
