The St. Louis Blues have fired head coach Mike Yeo, the team announced. Craig Berube has been named interim head coach.
Yeo's dismissal comes after the Blues struggled to start the season, posting a 7-9-3 record. The team was shut out in its two most recent games, including a 2-0 loss to the last-place Los Angeles Kings on home ice on Monday.
Yeo was in his third season as head coach after first joining the team as an associate coach. He previously served as head coach of the Minnesota Wild for five seasons.
Berube is in his second season with the Blues. Prior to joining St. Louis, he had a two-year stint as head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Blues' next game comes Wednesday against the Nashville Predators.
