Hopefully that call is being made now. If he says there’s no way he’s coming back to coach, I’d prefer Guy Boucher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicomo Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 (edited) Didn’t Guy Boucher use the trap? Not that I’d be against bringing him in (i’d take just about anyone right about now), but man, would it getting annoying fast if we have to start hearing about how the boring Devils are playing the boring trap again.

NJDevils1214 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Does anyone know how it works if you want to speak to guys who are employed by other teams? Do you always have to ask and make it public? If so they'd have to fire Hynes then start interviewing. There are tons of guys out there in assistant coaching roles who have or can coach their own teams. Ruff is one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we’re going to call out Hall and Nico and others, Cory needs to be held accountable as well. A couple years ago when he was slumping they never scored him any goals, now they can’t even win when they score 4 for him. Current Contract Cory Schneider signed a 7 year / $42,000,000 contract with the New Jersey Devils, including $42,000,000 guaranteed, and an annual average salary of $6,000,000. In 2019-20, Schneider will earn a base salary of $6,000,000, while carrying a cap hit of $6,000,000. And we're stuck with him until 2022. Yea it's pretty bad when it's gotten to the point where Devils fans get excited when Cory just plays a solid game, as any starting goalie should at that level. That's how low the expectations are.

EdgeControl Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Please , no Bylsma. Hynes has 3 games left cannucks and coyotes after the rags.. need 2 of these 3 or he's gone.. so most likely he's done... I will take boring over this nightmare, but with these young skaters nothing will be boring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titans04 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Before somebody responds well Hynes isn't the answer (duh) too........... wait for it........ is Guy Boucher really the answer? The guy gets jettisoned after about 2.5 seasons every time. There's gotta be a flaw there too imo. I think we're in a 50/50 stink hole. 50% players 50% Hynes. A deadly combination. :shrugs: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can’t hold a 3 goal lead for a period plus one minute, that’s not all coaching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikepeluso8 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 and I am going to soap box for a minute so spare me the friendly fire but... all you guys (90% of you) with your cute little jersey collections and your die hard "devils fandom" have been killing me on here for several seasons when I have been calling for Hynes head.
