Only A Matter Of Time... By Todd Aug 30th '09
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Houton Aeros housecleaning continued Thursday as the BUHL club fired head coach Ted Nolan.The move came one day after their third straight loss and who have also, only won 9 out of 33 games this season. Nolan was in the last year of his contract.
Aeros GM said Mike Keenan will be the interim Head Coach till the end of the season.
The Houston Aeros have been at the bottom of the standing for 2 years, Despite a lot of talent. This move was only a matter of time.“we've made the decision to move on," Gm montgomery said. “ The fans want to see a winning team here and that’s what I promised I would build them. We think getting a new coach in Houston with this young bunch will be a good move going into the offseason, Then we will sit down and talk about a long term coach or maybe keeping Keenan long term. All we know is we are moving forward without Ted Nolan and are 100% behind Mr. Mike Keenan.”
Lately it seems the Aeros can’t avoid the media, I think more is to come from GM Montgomery. This guy likes to win and wants to be a top team in this league….Even if that means trading his top talent for younger players.
“I tried to be a contender this year but nothing seemed to work out, I apologize to guys like Palffy, Zhamnov, Koivu who were brought in here to contend. I Apologize to the fans but stick around the future is very bright in Houston. You know?...I thought we had a great team coming in to 2004.” Montgomery said at his press conference.
