Fantasy Impact: The Los Angeles Kings fired Head Coach Darryl Sutter and General Manager Dean Lombardi Monday.

They named former All-Stars Luc Robitaille and Rob Blake as President and General Manager, respectively. Blake was also named Vice President. Must be all that business acumen they picked up on the ice am I right? In all seriousness though, I can't speak for what Robitaille and Blake bring to the table other than passion, and I know that Blake has been apprenticing under Lombardi for several years. Robitaille has had very deep ties with team brass in a number of capacities for a long time.

In fantasy hockey, this can only help. In the four years since the lockout, the Kings have not scored more than 225 goals in a season and this is because Sutter plays a possession style that focuses on not losing – as opposed to going after the win. A new coach is bound to step things up offensively, even if it's only by a little. I think you could see Anze Kopitar have a nice little rebound year, and Tyler Toffoli – who as a fifth-year player it may happen anyway – finally break out. Other players should see small upticks, but those are two that I would key in on.

I have been thinking long and hard about why this team acquired Ben Bishop and I started to wonder if it was to throw Jonathan Quick under the bus. If they could sign Ben Bishop to a better cap hit than Quick's $5.8 million, and then expose Quick to expansion, then they would essentially be helping the overall cap number without a significant decline in goalie quality. And, a minor thing, but they also get a goalie who is a year younger and more durable. Not that Bishop is Johnny Ironman, but Quick seems to miss huge chunks of the season every couple of years. Getting a goalie with more reliable health is a third bonus. Anyway, I was just beginning to convince myself of this theory when these firings happened. So if that was indeed Lombardi's plan, it may not be Rob Blake's plan. Curious to see what happens with Bishop now.

Well, that's four coaches fired in 24 hours. And none of them is the coach I think should go. Jon Cooper? What say you?
