Stars fire Peter DeBoer after season-ending playoff debacle
This time, Peter DeBoer is the one getting the hook.
The Dallas Stars fired their coach Friday, a little more than a week after an embarrassing, season-ending Game 5 loss to the Oilers in the Western Conference final.
“After careful consideration, we believe that a new voice is needed in our locker room to push us closer to our goal of winning the Stanley Cup,” GM Jim Nill said in a statement.
“We’d like to thank Pete for everything that he has helped our organization achieve over the past three seasons and wish him nothing but the best moving forward.”
