Monday's firing isn't the only time Lamoriello made a late-season coaching move. He fired Robby Ftorek with eight games left in the 1999-2000 season and Robinson led the team to its second Stanley Cup title.

robinson stepped down after the first 1/3 of the season last year, and lou brought them from 19points back to win the east.

I think Kickserv is talking about the year where the coach was fired at the end of the season or with about 5 games to go and Lou led them to the Cup!!

Ftorek was fired with 10 games or so left and Robinson led them to the cup. FAmous trashcan tossing after the Philly game or between periods
