The Toronto Maple Leafs slide out of a playoff position has cost head coach Ron Wilson his job. Cheap Beats By Dre UK . The club relieved Wilson of his duties on Friday evening after nearly four seasons in Toronto. Taking over for Wilson will be former Anaheim Ducks coach Randy Carlyle. The Leafs, who only have one win in their last 11 games, have fallen out of a playoff spot, and currently sit in 12th place in the Eastern Conference. "This was not an easy decision for me to make," general manager Brian Burke said in a statement. "I want to thank Ron for all of his hard work and dedication to our organization over the past four seasons." The move comes just a few months after Wilson was given a one-year contract extension in late December. Carlyle, who has signed a contract with the team for three years after this season, has a history with Burke, as the two were together during the Ducks Stanley Cup title in 2007.  Carlyle was replaced by Bruce Boudreau as head coach of the Ducks last December after the team opened the season with a 7-13-4 record. "Hes not a sensitive guy and hes not going to hug you after you come off the ice after a bad shift," NHL on TSN analyst Keith Jones said on Friday.  "This is a tough, hard-nosed hockey coach that knows how to win." "All the things that Brian Burke wanted from a hockey club when he came and talked about what he wanted to do with the Maple Leafs, thats the way Randy Carlyles teams play." former Carolina Hurricanes and Maple Leafs coach Paul Maurice said on the NHL on TSN.  "You saw it in Anaheim, very physical."  "They played a mean game, a hard game." NHL on NBC studio analyst Jeremy Roenick was on the Team 1040 Radio in Vancouver and said that he was surprised by the change.  The former NHLer also stated that he felt things were going to get tougher for the current Leafs. "All those players in the Maple Leafs locker room are going to wish they played harder and more correctly for Ron Wilson," Roenick said. Chants of "Fire Wilson!" echoed through Air Canada Centre when the Maple Leafs fell 5-3 to the Florida Panthers on (Tuesday) Feb. 28. The game marked Wilsons 1,400th career NHL game coached, tying him with Pat Quinn for fourth on the all-time list. Hired in 2008, Wilson was unable to guide the Maple Leafs to the playoffs during his tenure. The team currently owns the NHLs second-longest playoff drought at seven years. Wilson recorded a 34-35-13 mark in his first season as head coach with the Maple Leafs, the club finishing 12th in the Eastern Conference. The following year, the team posted a 30-38-14 record and finished last in the Conference. Last season, Wilson had his first winning season with the Maple Leafs, going 37-34-11, which was good enough for 10th in the Conference. Through 64 games this season, the Maple Leafs have 65 points and a 29-28-7 record.  Wilson leaves the Toronto with a 130-135-45 record overall with the Leafs. Carlyle becomes the 16th man to have both played for the Maple Leafs and then taken on the reins as the teams coach. The Maple Leafs also announced that assistant coach Rob Zettler has been reassigned to other duties within the organization. Beats By Dre For Sale .

He came up big with a tenth of a second left against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday night. Pauls running jumper against Tony Allens defence gave the Clippers a 93-91 victory and a 2-0 lead in their first-round playoff series. "Tony played as good as defence as you can," Paul said. "I looked up at the clock and thought I better get a shot off." Both teams stayed on the court while the referees reviewed the play. It was declared good, leaving Memphis a tick of the clock to inbound the ball but not enough to get off a final shot. "It hurts," said Mike Conley, who scored a playoff-career high 28 points for Memphis. "We wanted to come here and steal one." Paul finished with 24 points and nine assists, Blake Griffin added 21 points and eight rebounds and Jamal Crawford scored 15 points on the day he finished second to J.R. Smith of the Knicks for the leagues Sixth Man of the Year award. "We were on him, the kid made a tough shot," Memphis coach Lionel Hollins said of Paul. "Hes a great player and he made a big shot." Paul carried the Clippers in the final 3:46, scoring eight straight points, including a basket that gave them a 91-89 lead with 1:20 to play. "The way Conley was blowing by me at the other end, the least I could do was make a couple shots," Paul said. Conley led the Grizzlies fourth-quarter charge that came up just short. He had 10 points in the period, while Darrell Arthur scored five straight when Randolph was on the bench to pull Memphis into an 89-all tie. Conley found Marc Gasol alone in the paint and the big man dunked to tie the game 91-all with 13 seconds left. Griffin won a hard-fought jump ball, but Paul missed a 3-pointer. He redeemed himself and set off a raucous reaction — with longtime Clippers fan Billy Crystal pumping both arms in the air — when he drove the right baseline against Allen and banked in the game-winner. "I was supposed to send him back to the left. He got right and thats what he does in close games," Allenn said.dddddddddddd "I definitely let my team down by not sending him back to his weak hand. "The guy made an amazing shot and all you can do is just deal with the results." Gasol added 17 points, Allen had 16 points and 10 rebounds, and Zach Randolph had 13 points while racking up five fouls for the second straight game. Game 3 is Thursday in Memphis. The Clippers bench started the fourth quarter and ran off eight straight points for the games first double-digit lead, 81-71. Eric Bledsoe and Matt Barnes had four points each. Conley answered with five straight points to close the Grizzlies within seven points. Griffin and Paul joined the second unit, and Griffin scored on a driving dunk for an 85-76 lead. The Clippers returned to their high-flying ways after Lob City managed just one dunk in the series opener. "My teammates got me open shots and easy looks and that gets me going," Griffin said. "We kept moving the ball." The Clippers led by seven points early in the third before the game turned into a back-and-forth affair. Memphis briefly regained a one-point lead and then tied it 59-all on Arthurs dunk before Paul scored six of the Clippers final 13 points to send them into the fourth leading 75-71. Neither team led by more than eight points in the first half, with the Clippers ahead 50-44 at halftime.
