My hopes for Dallas would be Cooper & Muller. The true pipe dream would be convincing Ralph Kruger to come coach in the NHL again, but I don't think that'll happen.

-Kirk Muller stated not too long ago he prefers assistant coach job.
-No way Capuano comes back in the NHL with so many better options.
-Dallas Eakins really?
-Weight did good, i wouldn't be surprised if he stays there.

Prediction for Las Vegas is Shelton Keefe (Marlies AHL coach)

So far I've been correct about Rowe, Desjardins and Sutter being fired! The difficult part is knowing who replaces those people though...

If the Kings go from Sutter to Tippett they're in for an even more frustrating offensive season.

Sakic and Bednar are staying? Good god. Does Sakic own the team? I'm more surprised that he's surviving along with Bednar, than the fact that Bednar is coming back. Only two teams this millennium have failed to reach 50 points in a full season. That would be the expansion 99-00 Atlanta Thrashers and Sakic and Bednar's 16-17 Colorado Avalanche.

If the Kings go from Sutter to Tippett they're in for an even more frustrating offensive season.

They'll be in for a VERY defensive season.

Spending much more time defending and trapped in their defensive zone. Tippett is one of the worst coaches in the NHL and if he were hired somewhere after Arizona, it shows how much of a BS reputation he has and also how overrated he really is.
