Speculation running rampant as the Chicago Wolves make a sudden coaching change
AHL: MAR 01 Chicago Wolves at Cleveland Monsters | Icon Sportswire/GettyImagesFriday morning was a busy one for the hockey world, and the Carolina Hurricanes were no exception.

It was a decision that left many, me included, scratching our heads.
The Hurricanes announced on Friday morning, through their official site and social media pages, that Chicago Wolves Head Coach Cam Abbott had been relieved of his duties, with Assistant Coach Spiros Anastas taking over on an interim basis. This wording suggests that there might be more behind the scenes.
