I think he'll be one of those coaches who will make it to the end of the season, that or he gets fired mid-season if the Sharks turn out to be THAT bad, and are desperate to turn the ship. But don't know who they replace him with. But if I were to make a guess, I imagine that Maurice becomes their head coach if Winnipeg fires him (fingers crossed Winnipeg gets rid of him), that or Seattle because of his connection to Francis and Co.
But I do imagine he joins the hot seat with Maurice, Boudreau, and Hynes. Would say Torts, but I can almost bet Columbus is going to keep him for a long... time. All but Hynes find jobs.
I imagine after Hynes is fired, Boudreau takes over as the Devils head coach after Minnesota fires him.
