New Head Coach search

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

Jokes on you when Jack is named player coach

More and more this waits out I’m starting to think its Woodcroft that’s got the HC job and they are waiting for world’s to be over so they can make an announcement when he’s back.

Meh would be very hard to keep it a secret without much utility. The other candidates would leak out that they're out of the running/haven't been in communication with the team in weeks and plenty of people would pick up on it.

I think they're truly waiting on clarity from Keefe and they haven't gotten it.

But reports have come out that Keefe wants to coach. What’s he waiting for?

He must not want bread.

Did you see that view in his farewell video to leafs fans?

Hes probably deciding on if he would rather spend a year with his family (paid by the Leafs) or getting right back into the grind.

Good thing Travis Green isn't still available and other team (with a bunch of IDIOTS working for/owning them) hired him before anyone (save for Lindy lol) else filled their vacancies.

I can imagine sweating right now if he were still hanging around, while we still sat here with a head coaching vacancy. At least he can't be a backup plan for us if we can't land a guy we really want.

 

[HoliksGhost]

Is Keefe the youngest candidate?

 

[Bcap88]

Yea keefe took his farewell video on a boat. He’s likely on vacation lol which would explain why they haven’t interviewed him yet or he has taken any interviews yet

I came to post a meme.

Hope that's the case. I'd prefer Woodcroft over Keefe, but would be fine with either.

Keefe and woodcroft... The helenius and MBN of NHL coaching searches

 

[NjdevilfanJim]

Wonder if Devils have interviewed anyone like a Warsofsky or Sturm?....

 

[Guttersniped]

Nikishin was the best defenseman outside NHL for 2-3 years already. Morrow is solid puckmover. Grudinin is already playing 18-20 min in KHL regularly as 20 yo, but Im not so sure not in the positive or negative way. Still quite solid defensive prospects. So they should just save Slavin and at least one of Chatfield or Skjei(they have money for two out of Slavin, Skjei, Peshe and Chatfield) and they will have quite solid defense with Morrow and Nikishin for the next five years.May be quite raw for a couple of years, but Devils had very raw defense this year. Step back. Its not like we are very scary about future years.

They may lose Pesce and Skjei and both would be a tough loss.

And Burns turns 108 next season so he might slow down.

 

[Cheddabombs]

Hmm I think he's older than me, so second youngest

Its very amusing for me that he made his NHL debut before Nemec was born.

You can tell he was an early to mid 2000's draft pick just by the hair.

The evolution of his photos over his career where he turns into Chewbacca at the end is amazing.

 

[Bleedred]

I remembered what he looked like clean shaven.

I just forgot what he looked like with all his teeth.

 

[Goptor]

With Parise retiring, maybe the Devils can hire him as the new head coach?

There's always the Todd McLellan danger.....
