Bruins fire general manager

The Chilliwack Bruins' ownership group fired general manager Darrell May on Tuesday. That ownership group includes Brian Burke, the president and GM of the NHL's Toronto Maple Leafs, and Glen Sather, the president and GM of the NHL's New York Rangers.

Here is the press release issued by the Bruins:
The Chilliwack Bruins announced today that General Manager Darrell May has been relieved of his duties effective immediately. The moves comes with the Bruins in ninth place in the Western Conference with a record of 14-31-2-4, six points out of a playoff spot.
“Chilliwack fans have been incredibly supportive of us through these first few years”, stated Bruins President Darryl Porter. “This has been a trying year for our fans who despite our won loss record have remained incredibly dedicated. This season has not unfolded the way ownership feels it should have and we felt it was best to make a change at this time.  We would like to thank Darrell for his hard work and dedication to the Bruins for the last four years.”
Darryl Porter will serve as interim General Manager until a replacement is named.
