FILE - In this Feb. 15, 2016, file photo, Florida Panthers coach Gerard Gallant talks to center Jonathan Huberdeau (11) during overtime of an NHL hockey game against the Pittsburgh Penguins in Sunrise, Fla. It’s coach firing season in the NHL. Well, actually, that’s every season. Claude Julien of the Boston Bruins on Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2017, became the fourth coach fired this season and the second in a week after the St. Louis Blues canned Ken Hitchcock. The New York Islanders last month fired Jack Capuano and the Florida Panthers in November axed Gallant, who infamously was left outside a visiting arena waiting for a cab. (AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee)
