Wonder how that changes long term plans. 

It doesn't. Once they committed to bringing back ruff, brunette was likely gone. I think the devils knew that. Basically, ruff became the long term plan

I’m not positive Ruff is a long term plan at coach. Maybe it’s a year by year thing. If we ‘underperform’ next year he could be done still

I doubt that he'd be gone in a year. He and Fitz are friends going back 30+ years.  Depends on how bad it is. The team loves ruff, which helps. In hockey 2 years is long term 😂

Right, it sounded like tbe original plan was to have Lindy in the FO.

Why do NHL teams get rid of coaches quicker than other sports and why do we see more re-trends for hires ( or so it seems ) 

The good old boys club is a very real thing in the NHL. It's super annoying. How good you are really doesn't matter. Guys like hynes or chia will always have jobs until they retire

This kid is interesting. He's got size and was really good for Slovakia. Was pretty good in limited time in the USHL and he's going to a legit program at Duluth. Would be a nice addition if we land him down the line.
