from the Washington Post,
Hanlon became the target of a group of disgruntled fans, who late in the second period began booing and chanting, “Fire Hanlon.” Hanlon has been behind the bench since December 2003 and presided over some lean times for the franchise.
But this season was supposed to be different after an offseason spending spree added three veterans to a core that already included Kolzig, Alex Ovechkin and Semin, raising expectations.
But nearly a quarter of the way in, the Capitals find themselves with 13 points in 20 games, dead last in the league standings.

The Caps still have some time to turn things around, but they better get it into gear quickly, or it could turn very ugly.
