00:00Well, we said it because it was too easy to figure out that the Rangers were going to fire their head coach

00:06after the season that they had and the way they played at the Garden.

00:09You knew it was inevitable, right?

00:11It was inevitable, so after two seasons, Peter LaViolette chopped at the Garden.

00:17Two very different seasons.

00:19I mean, they were, what, two wins away from the Stanley Cup final last year

00:22when they lost to Florida in the East Finals,

00:25and then this year they missed the playoffs, so that's enough to chop LaViolette

00:29after two years.

00:30Also, Anaheim head coach Greg Cronin, he only lasts two years at the Duck Pond.

00:37Yeah, Greg, I know, Greg was a big who guy,

00:40but I actually thought they got better this year.

00:43I know they didn't make the playoffs, but they took a jump.

00:49Why fire him?

00:50They did a great job.

00:53Because it's just, this is how it is now.

00:56It's just typical.

00:57It's like if you're not at the top.

00:58Watch them hire LaViolette.

01:01It wouldn't surprise me.

01:03I mean, he's pretty much coached for every team in the league at this point,

01:07except Marana.

01:08He's recycled bottle water.

01:10I mean, this guy, he gets every job in the league.

01:13He does.

01:15And Tortorella.

01:16He's another one.

01:17They just can't get rid of him.

01:18Torts.

01:19Everybody loves Torts.

01:20Patrick Kane wants to stay with the Red Wings,

01:23and allegedly they want to have him back, so they'll work on that.

01:25And the United States women,

01:28did you see the end to that world championship

01:30where they beat Canada in overtime with the goal?

01:34So congratulations to the U.S. women.

01:36They won the world championship.

01:37I think they said it was the longest game ever.

01:41Was it?

01:42Okay.

01:42There you go.

01:43In the world's ever.

01:43I'm sure it was.

01:44In the world's ever for the women's side.

01:46So nice job.

01:48That's the only thing we've beaten Canada in the last five years.

01:51It's possible.

01:54Very possible.

01:55It's possible.
