Oh Darryl. I will miss your press conferences most of all.

If you haven't seen it yet, Sutter did a final interview with Mayor's Manor.

Moments later, he exited a side door of Citizen’s Business Bank Arena, and as he passed a small group of fans waiting for several of the Reign players, one of them yelled out, ‘We still love you, Darryl’ – to which he quickly replied, ‘Peace.’

This news is surprising. I thought Sutter at least have another year.

I wasn't surprised by Lombardi, because all the "insiders" have been saying he would be out if the team didn't make the playoffs, even with the Quick situation. I am a little surprised by Sutter, though, although I guess it's better to make a clean break.

I am most surprised they made Rob Blake the General Manager.

Press Conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEwib4Al8DA&feature=em-lss

Doesn't start until around 18:00 in. Not much of interest, except that the guy playing the owner is Dan Beckerman, president and chief executive of AEG. Rob Blake will be GM. Luc Robitaille will be Team President and President of Hockey Ops (I honestly thought all this time he was already President of Hockey Ops, but apparently he was President of Business Ops).

The players were having their end-of-season medical exams today and Rob Blake got to address them.

They haven't discussed Stevens, Payne, or even formulated a decision on what type of coach they want to hire yet. When asked where Mike Futa fit in, Blake said they'd sit down with him in a couple of days, but that he thought he'd end up relying heavily on Futa.

They mentioned the core twice and listed Kopitar, Carter, Doughty and Quick as the members of it.

It's probably old news by now that John Stevens was hired on Sunday to be the next Kings coach. I have a soft spot for him due to "Hockey at the End of the World," but I don't know a whole lot about him.
