The Las Vegas Golden Knights have made a stunning decision.
According to a breaking news report from National Hockey League insider Elliotte Friedman, the Golden Knights have fired head coach Peter DeBoer just 3 seasons into his tenure behind the bench of the Golden Knights.

Sadly what is likely to go down as the most notable moment of DeBoer's tenure behind the bench will be the incident that would eventually lead to the departure of goaltender Marc Andre Fleury, who at the time was the face of the franchise, the now infamous tweet from Fleury's agent Alan Walsh that featured a sword with DeBoer's name on it.
Stay tuned for more details.
