Or because he's a good coach and you don't fire people when you are staying the course and have goaltending/injury issues
A "good coach" doesn't have a player, who was playing the best hockey that night(Jesper Bratt), log only 13 minutes of total ice time.
And when you know that if you were the MVP and played for a Canadian team you probably would've gotten more in endorsements than your total existing contract... you seriously have to decide if it is worth playing in anonymity in New Jersey.
Tell me how those "endorsements" worked out for him in Edmonton.
He's been there, done that.
Frankly, he's been on record saying he loves the anonymity of being here and no one bugging him on the street like the Media did hounding his every step in CANADA(Edmonton).
(there's a video out there of him saying as such but I can't find it. It was of him talking to us, the viewers, while walking in Hoboken)
EDIT : of course, make no mistake, though.
MONEY TALKS. It will all come down to that.
Everything else is supplementary to his decision and I think Shero re-signing Hynes, making sure there's stability at the HC position, was more for ensuring Hall remains a Devil than giving Hynes a vote-of-confidence.
Shero isn't stupid.
