How Devils coach John Hynes talks with GM Ray Shero approaching trade deadline

DETROIT -- Devils coach John Hynes' usual daily communication with general manager Ray Shero will be amplified leading up to the March 1 trade deadline.

While the Devils are still intent on contending for a playoff spot, their play over the 28 days of February will dictate exactly what they do leading up to the deadline.

When it comes to personnel decisions and any potential moves, Hynes said Shero stays in close communication.

"In this stretch, we always communicate in player situations, if there's guys they're looking at, he'll ask for opinions from the coaching staff," Hynes said.
