The New Jersey Devils are in the midst of a rebuild, looking to get younger at forward and to develop their young defensemen. In the middle of this rebuild is John Hynes, the new Head Coach of the New Jersey Devils. He faces a difficult task in turning things around in Newark and getting his young players to reach their full potential. Even with this big responsibility on his shoulders I truly believe that GM Ray Shero has brought in the right man for the job.
While John Hynes’ prior AHL success may not guarantee he will succeed in New Jersey, I do see it as a positive sign for the organization.
