Dyck Expected to be Let Go as Coach

It appears Michael Dyck's days as head coach of the Lethbridge Hurricanes will be coming to an end.

Gregg Drinnan from the Kamloops Daily News has been reporting this on his blog:

The Lethbridge Hurricanes will announce Friday that they won’t be renewing the contract of head coach Michael Dyck. Dyck, who joined the Hurricanes during the 2005-06 season, guided the Hurricanes into the 2008 WHL final, where they were swept by the eventual Memorial Cup-champion Spokane Chiefs. Lethbridge general manager Roy Stasiuk, whose performance also was put under the microscope by the team’s board of directors, has one year left on his contract. This season, the Hurricanes finished seventh in the Eastern Conference and upset the second-seeded Saskatoon Blades in the first round of the postseason before falling in four games to the Calgary Hitmen. In his three-plus seasons, Dyck, 40, was 134-120-19 with the Hurricanes. Dyck’s name immediately goes into the mix in Regina, where the Pats are looking for a replacement for head coach Dale Derkatch, who was fired on Tuesday despite having two years left on his contract. The Hurricanes join the Chilliwack Bruins, Everett Silvertips and Regina without head coaches. Greg Harder of the Regina Leader-Post, who broke the story involving Dyck’s future on Thursday night, also has speculated that Dean Chynoweth, the general manager and head coach of the Swift Current Broncos, might be a candidate. Regina general manager Brent Parker would have to ask for and receive permission to talk with Chynoweth before moving forward.

So far I have not been notified by the Hurricanes of any press conference in regard to an official announcement.
Have a good day!
