Wild GM Doug Risebrough Fired

Complete house cleaning in Minnesota, which unfortunately looks like it will include Gaborik as well. The Wild have been my bandwagon Western Conference team ever since that great run to the West Finals in 2003. Would love to see Laviolette get the coaching job there.

you never know. I wonder if they will try to steal Poile from Nashville for GM.

Heard someone on XM yesterday say they thought Lavi would be a good fit in Edmonton. I don’t think it’ll happen since Tambellini said he wanted a physical team, and Lavi’s not exactly known for that. That being said, he would be able to get something out of their speed if he went there (Cogliano would thrive, I bet).
