Whenever a team is struggling over multiple seasons one of the things brought up is firing the head coach. In the midst of a rebuild, the New Jersey Devils find themselves at these crossroads.
Should they fire coach John Hynes? The answer to that question is an astounding no.
In his first season, he led the Devils to 38 wins, as well as winning the season series against the hated rival New York Rangers. There isn’t a Devils’ fan around who will tell you they excepted that especially from someone whose coaching experience is limited to AHL experience.
