The Blackhawks have fired three-time Stanley Cup winning coach Joel Quenneville.

General manager Stan Bowman announced that they are releasing Coach Q  and assistants Kevin Dineen and Ulf Samuelsson today and appointed Jeremy Colliton the new coach. The Hawks were of to a 6-6-3 start and missed the playoffs last season.

No matter what the reasons is/was …  Coach Q brought us THREE Stanley Cups and it will hurt me to see him go.
