After firing coach Dan Bylsma, the Seattle Kraken have promoted longtime general manager Ron Francis to president of hockey operations, with assistant Jason Botterill taking over day-to-day responsibilities.
The shakeup announced Tuesday comes after the Kraken missed the playoffs for the third time in four years and regressed in Bylsma\'s only season behind the bench.
