Sodboy13 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Now there's word that it might be Paul MacLean, so Lou might be doing Eugene Melnyk a favor here.

The_Admiral Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Paulrus would be a good coach for the Devils, if not immediately, eventually. I sure wouldn't promote from within with a within like Jersey's. Watching Botox Face make Jaromir Jagr play out of position would be funny, though. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Nope. It's going to be Lamoriello (again), with Adam Oates and Scott Stevens as co-head coaches.Devils fans, stay away from home games for the rest of the season. Your king has gone mad.

JayMac Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 So now the NHL teams are adopting an offensive and defensive coordinator system? It may actually be a thing already with assistant coaches but I have never heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 So now the NHL teams are adopting an offensive and defensive coordinator system? It may actually be a thing already with assistant coaches but I have never heard of it.There's traditionally one assistant who specializes in either uneven phase. What's puzzling is that Botox and Head Wound technically aren't assistants (there are still assistant coaches on staff) but with Lou's presence behind the bench, still kind of are. What absurdity. The best part is that Lou said "the intention is to have one head coach next year." One of the greatest general managers in league history saying that he intends to have a coach. It's been a long way down. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Emphasis on the one head coach next year. The remainder of this year will be a reality-TV-style showdown to determine the "winner". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmm Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Because I'm a dork, I'm kind of curious how the NHL will treat the Devils' coaching situation statistically. Do Oates and Stevens and possibly Lou all get a loss on their record for last night? Do they each get a half or a third of a loss? Or does the loss get credited to the Oates/Stevens/Lamoriello human centipede and not count against their individual records? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's someone on the bench who outranks you, you can't be a "head" coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
