The greatest moment of this season will be Pommers playing goalie against his own shot (I forget which game).  That says it all about this year.  

A  million billion times yes.

Precedent for firing a coach with a few games left? Who takes over?

Botterill steps behind the bench to face the music, endearing himself to the fanbase.

One of his assistants.  Probably Smith.  

 

Taylor has a playoff to play.

I think the only way Botteril survives this season is if in fact he didn’t hire Housley. If Pegula insisted on Housley than Botteril is safe. Otherwise he should be gone with Housley. No quality experienced coach will want to come to this quagmire.

He could.  A mercy firing might be in order.  

This might be why you'd do it. OTOH letting him coach out the string lets him maintain a bit of dignity.

I think a GM should get one coach fire.

What would Hutton and Ullmark say, I wonder?

He's left them hanging a few times this year.
