The Vegas Golden Knights announced Monday that they had fired head coach Pete DeBoer.
The move comes after Vegas finished fourth in the Pacific Division and failed to qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs.
General manager Kelly McCrimmon praised DeBoer's contributions during his three seasons on the bench:
"We would like to thank Pete DeBoer for his commitment to the Vegas Golden Knights over the past three seasons. Since joining the organization, Pete and his staff have guided us through some of the most unique and challenging circumstances we've witnessed since our franchise entered the NHL.
