The Kingston Frontenacs are expected to name Doug Gilmour as head coach at a press conference today. Reports say Gilmour will replace Larry Mavety behind the bench.

The Frontenacs have five wins in 23 games and are last place in the Ontario Hockey League.

PPP Update: Here is the TSN report, Duane Rollins at Out of Left Field just woke up Neate Sager to get him on the case, and Two Belefears was where I saw it first.

Andrew Bucholtz takes a look at the local coverage of the move and the interesting tidbit that Killer had a cameo in Slap Shot 3: The Junior League. No word yet on whether the Frontenacs will be able to bring their f*cking toys with them on the road.

Neate Sager posts his thoughts and they are pretty much in line with what I had expected. Dougie! is stepping into an extremely difficult situation. All we can do is hope for the best.
