"The Colorado Avalanche have fired general manager Francois Giguere after the team finished last in the Western Conference. Team president Pierre Lacroix on Monday called the season "unacceptable." He will oversee the Avalanche until a replacement is hired (Sportsline)."
Avalanche had to do this. They really need to pull this team in a new direction. The Problem with this team was the goaltending. Raycroft and Budaj are just flat out terrible. So, they will obviously on the on market for a goalie this offseason. it is really too bad that Sakic's career will mostly likely have to end like this. He is nothing, but a class act, and has meant the world to this organization. I gained all the respect in the world for him when Bourque was on the team with him, and he handed the cup right away to him. In my eyes Sakic is an automatic Hall Of Famer, and one of my personal favorite players of all-time.
