I agree and if I can be honest, I thought the Islanders overachieved based on the talent they had the prior few years. This year they played more to the level of their talent. Trotz is a really good coach and I will be interested to see where he ends up.

Peter DeBoer is still under contract to coach Vegas. For Trotz to be hired, DeBoer would have to be relieved of his duties. I don't think you can have 2 head coaches. It's not something I have seen except in college basketball.why not in VEGAS..
Here is the New York Post report on the Trotz firing. Note that his longtime assistants like Lambert and Korn were not fired, but could be when the new coach is hired:

What do you think will happen to Lambert and Korn?

Shesterkin pulled again tonite, I feel for him and his team. I really thought(hope) they could pass the penguins. Well this will have to be put in the "learning from experience process" for the blue shirts.
Unfortunately, yes. The Rangers have been getting badly outshot and Shesterkin has been peppered with shots the whole series, including 124 in the 3 OT game. I think it has worn him down mentally.
