Jackets inexplicably hire Tortorella when Carlyle available
The Jackets passed on the chance to have Carlyle's tight systems lead them to greatness.
In a move that has stunned the entire hockey world the Columbus Blue Jackets have fired head coach Todd Richards and hired John Tortorella and not Randy Carlyle.
The firing was not the surprising part, of course. Any of the tens of people who watched the Jackets limp through last night's game against the Islanders can see the explanation that they have "no confidence," was a major understatement.
