Fantasy Impact: The New Jersey Devils have fired head coach Peter DeBoer.
The Devils get: A new head coach. DeBoer's three-and-a-half year stint was actually a rather long one for New Jersey and impetuous GM Lou Lamoriello who has now fired coaches on December 23 and December 26 in his career. What a Grinch.
Lamoriello did not name a replacement and will not comment further until tomorrow:
“I will confirm that there will be a coaching change,” Lamoriello said Friday afternoon. “But there will be no further comment or anything said until tomorrow morning.
Poor timing aside, it was probably time to move on from DeBoer, a coach who has only made the playoffs once in six NHL seasons. He did bring the Devils to the Stanley Cup Final in that lone playoff appearance but it was clear that DeBoer wouldn't be taking this team back to the post-season.
