After 113 games in charge, Dallas Eakins has been fired by the Edmonton Oilers.

Of those 113 games, Eakins won just 36 times -- an ugly .381 winning percentage -- which, as you’d expect, led to a number of depressing quotes. Many of which we converted into headlines!

Leading off, we have the “Dallas Eakins is quite upset” category:

Then, the “angry fans chucked their jerseys” list:
