Hurricanes fire Laviolette

[RockStar36]

The Carolina Hurricanes (http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/clubhouse?team=car) have fired coach Peter Laviolette, just two years after winning the Stanley Cup, according to multiple media reports.


Sources have told ESPN.com that Paul Maurice has been hired to replace Laviolette, who was in his fifth season as the Hurricanes' coach. In a curious turn of events, Laviolette was the one who replaced Maurice as coach in 2003, when Maurice was dismissed 30 games into the season.

Well, when you win the luckiest Stanley Cup in history, your luck isn't going to last forever...You have to pay the piper eventually...
