I think this is the right call, but didn't expect it. I think Verbeek rightly analyzed that the 21-point improvement was not what it seemed. I'm also assuming the exit interviews were not kind to Cronin.
I hope Cronin finds another job where he can succeed, maybe back in the AHL or as an assistant. But NHL head coach seems above his level.
I hope the next hire comes quickly.
