Pool: Time and Date when we know the great truth that is Craig Berube getting fired

[GKJ]

With no playoffs, I say let's amuse ourselves and try to predict the date and time when the world is made aware that Craig Berube is fired. If you get it within the hour, you win the Internet. Of course you can officially go on record and claim that he will not be fired, but prepare to be hung by your toes in the town square for perpetuating untruths.


Pick: April 14 at 4:30pm. They won't embarrass him by firing him immediately, but Hextall will want to go through exit interviews and such first, I feel.

Teams don't do much in terms of hirings, firings, signings, trades, etc. on Sundays. So I'll go with Monday 4/13 around 2 pm. Theyll do his exit interview, prepare a press statement, and release it in the afternoon. Local media won't care, and national will already be onto the playoffs.

im going to go with less then 10 mins after the game ends tomorow...

Hextall will have Berubes desk prepacked...

 

[PALE PWNR]

Why do they have to announce hes fired? They just won't renew his contract and hire someone else.

That said I believe they will hire a new coach June 20th and it'll come out between 1 and 2 PM

 

[TCTC]

So we can assume that he has another year on his contract? I don't like that.

He doesn't his contract is up at the end of the season

 

[flyershockey]

Berube has a year left on the deal he got as an assistant. He would have to be fired.

 

[TCTC]

That's what I thought as well. But some people here think that he has, so I'm wondering who's right.

 

[PALE PWNR]

I could have sworn I read that hes done. Oh well if I'm wrong I'm wrong.

 

[Garbage Goal]

Yeah I literally don't remember people saying he has another year until now. I also remember it being just this one year. Maybe I'm wrong.

MSE we need you.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

I've read the contract is up after next season.

I'm guessing he gets fired the first week in November.

 

[swflyers93]

If there are a good group of guys available, such as Babcock, Tippett, Carlyle, Julien and McLean, Hexy has to see any of these guys are a serious upgrade from Berube.

 

[Jumping]

What I'm worried about is that you all have the year wrong.

 

[GKJ]

When it's referred to in the media, it's about a potential firing. I'm sure they would be more clear if his contract was simply going to expire.

Right? Now I'm confused.

This says 2 years left while it has Babcock at 1.

If true, Monday the 13th. 11:30am.

 

[MadFerIt95*]

I predict he will be here next year.... unfortunately.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Friday May 22nd at 3:45PM.

 

[CodyTheHuman]

Friday April 17th, 2015.

 

[Philadelphia Ducks]

I'll guess the morning after game 15 next season.

 

[Harold Bingo]

April 13th, 2021.

Hopefully Hextall is waiting in the hallway and as Berube leaves then bench after his last game, he whispers it into his ear.

The length of the pact exceeds this current season. It is due to expire following the 2015-16 season.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Monday April 13th. 5:00 local time.

 

[Anthems]

He's not going anywhere unfortunately.

I find it strange that it's so hard to find NHL coaches contract length, think it would be more public knowledge. Since I haven't heard anything about his contract expiring, I would have to guess that he has one more year. Exit interviews will occur Sunday-Wednesday, my guess is he gets the axe Thursday April 16th.
