The Seattle Kraken have fired Dan Bylsma as manager after one season in the job. The Kraken, who fired Dave Hakstol last season, will be searching for their third head coach in as many seasons.
\"We thank Dan for his commitment and the energy he brought to our organization over the past four years at the NHL and AHL levels,\" Kraken general manager Ron Francis said in a statement. \"After a thorough review of the season and our expectations for next year and beyond, we\'ve made the difficult decision to move in a different direction behind the bench.\"
The Kraken now join the Anaheim Ducks, Boston Bruins, Chicago Blackhawks, New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers as teams seeking a new head coach.
