Don Cherry believes that that fired Canucks coach Alain Vigneault was "thrown under the bus" by GM Mike Gillis.
Cherry argued that the fault lies with Gillis for his roster decisions. Specifically moves like keeping Roberto Luongo and thus setting the stage for a goaltending controversy. If the Canucks suffer another fast playoff exit in 2013-14, then Gillis might end up getting fired as well.

Alain Vigneault hopes to find a new coaching gig in the NHL.
Vigneault was fired by the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday. "I am a career coach and it is what I love to do," Vigneault said. He has a 422-288-35-61 record as a coach and will probably enter the 2013-14 campaign as another team's bench boss. The Dallas Stars and Colorado Avalanche are two possibilities, but other options might present themselves.

Canucks GM Mike Gillis has fired Alain Vigneault "after a thorough review."
Gillis cited the Canucks' lack of playoff success as the primary reason they decided to make a change. Vancouver has been great in the regular season, but endured fast exits from the 2012 and 2013 playoffs. He didn't want to give any hints as to who the next head coach might be, but he did say that the problems went beyond their now former coach. "Everyone will be addressed," Gillis said. This might be an eventful summer for Vancouver.
