With this morning's news of the New York Islanders' firing of head coach Ted Nolan, another name has been added to the list of potential candidates for the Los Angeles Kings. The Kings fired coach Marc Crawford earlier this off-season, after the team finished last in the Western Conference (and second-to-last in the league), with a disappointing 71 points. In his two seasons behind the Kings' bench, Crawford amassed a 59-84-21 record.
Los Angeles' poor play have caused average attendance at the Staples Center to plummet from 17,821 to 16,583 within the past three seasons, while their cross-highway rivals Anaheim Ducks captured the Stanley Cup championship in 2007 and played to 77 consecutive sellouts.

Why do the Kings want to be associated with Teddy Nolan. Not sure what happened in NY. But I think he got tired of the losing and the lack of talent, skill on that squad. Nolan would probably work well with the youngsters but I think DLombardi has someone else in mind.
Starting to get nervous- finally we have a coach. Terry Murray- E.J. Hradek says he has a more patient approach than Crawford, but how does his hair style compare with Marc Crawford?

Seriously? Nolan is notorious for not working well with youngsters, that is why he is out in NY. He plays his vets and puts the young guys at the end of the bench.
