San Jose has fired Head Coach Ron Wilson after failing to get deep into the playoffs again. Wilson was hired by the Sharks in 2002 and helped them be a contender year in and year out. Like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with Tony Dungy, San Jose felt they have the talent to go deep and win a Championship and were unhappy that Ron Wilson was unable to get them there. We'll see if the Sharks' next coach will be able to drive them to a championship like "Chucky" was able to with Tampa.
So far, the Atlanta Thrashers, Florida Panthers, Colorado Avalance, Ottawa Senators, and the Toronto Maple Leafs are also looking for new coaches. It's being rumoured that Peter Laviolette could be out in Carolina as well.
Jacques Lemaire, though, will be back for an 8th season behind Minessota's bench.
