Well that lasted a long time...

Barry Melrose out; Tocchet in

You knew Melrose's days were numbered when he was treating his star players badly and taking days off when the team should be practicing etc etc.

That's what happens when you play the face of your franchise 18 minutes per game

So how long until he's back at ESPN?

Who does ESPN even use for the hockey analysts now? I haven't watched SC in the longest time so I don't even know if they replaced Melrose with someone.

The guys over at hfboards are having a field day with this. What a sideshow.

Yeah no big shock there. and I think Vinny is still the franchise player.

Get this: Matthew Barnaby.

I think... I know he was on there one time. Not sure if he's the real analyst though. Can't say I go to ESPN for my hockey coverage.

Barnaby's actually pretty good. I watched all those online previews and he read the teleprompter pretty well

Also, I thought it was bad that he was playing Vinny 18 per game...Stamkos played 21 minutes combined over the past two nights. Jeez that's pathetic.
