| King with a rusted crown |
Five losses in seven games? Power Play worst in the West? Penalty kill abysmal? Slipping down the last few spots of the playoff seeding? No problem, there's the patented NHL solution - fire the coach.

Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone.
By severing relationships with their franchise quarterbacks, the San Diego Chargers and the Minnesota Vikings have paved their paradise and put up a parking lot.
