    NHL Daily: Morning Discussion

    The Pittsburgh Penguins’ head coach Mike Sullivan was sidelined in the end of the Penguins’ loss to the Ottawa Senators last night. There wasn’t a clear reason for why Sullivan was ejected but he seemed to have struck a wrong cord with the refs.

    It is believed that Sullivan said something that rubbed the refs just the wrong way and that the move landed him with a game misconduct. After being ejected, the coach walked silently off the bench and to the locker room.

    Some fans are praising whatever might have led Sullivan to being ejected because it could be a testament of the heart he has for his team while others are saying it is an unnecessary embarrassment for himself and the organization.

    Do you think Sullivan’s outburst and ejection is a sign of his passion or a result of his bad temper?
