He didn't get fired.

Detroit he saw as easy future Cup with the immense talent they had by 1993 and the management/scouting infrastructure in place.

Bowman's the best coach of all time but he always came off as being a bit controlling. Guess that as well as the Penguins losing early in 1993 guaranteed his exit from Pittsburgh.

Scotty just had an arrogance about him that gave the impression he knew better than everyone else... But then again, as the all-time winningest coach by a mile, I guess he did!

Yeah, he didn't even want to coach in the first place...but Badger Bob died...

Mario wasn't a big fan of him to boot...

Guy Lafleur probably wasn't a big fan either, but he got with the program and ended up with 5 rings vs 2 for Mario. Mario got his way and ended up with Eddie Johnson...
