ANAHEIM-- The firing of Anaheim Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau was ultimately based on a lack of success in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but general manager Bob Murray didn't pin all of the blame on Boudreau on Friday.
"The core has to be held responsible," Murray said at Honda Center after firing Boudreau. "Maybe I haven't been hard enough on them in the last few years. They're going to hear some different words this time."
