Speculation: Our Next Head Coach(es)

[NJDevs26]

How does Doug Wilson even still have a job? Just talking to Oates about a HC vacancy is a fireable offense lol

I almost want to see that happen just to see Bleed explode. Although maybe they're talking with Oates as a Pete assistant candidate?

Didnt Larry Robinson work with both of them with the Devils?

It wouldnt shock me at all if Robinson had something to do with suggesting them as part of the new staff.

Maybe, but I agree about Oates. What do teams see in this guy? When he was with us the first time running our PP it stunk. Then the Caps gave him a quick boot, and his latest return didn't show us anything either.

The plot thickens...

@TSNBobMcKenzie: Sources in BUF say they are OUT on Mike Babcock. Not going to BUF.

@TSNAaronWard: Source say Mike Babcock has decided to leave the Detroit Red Wings. #TSN

 

[HenriquesJawLine]

Would Blashill be a possibility for the Devils if Babcock returns to Detroit?

Nevermind, you already covered the extra thickness Wardo sent out

Moot question now, he's gone.

I'd laugh my ass off if lous iron curtain is still up and we get Babs. I know it won't happen though

 

[Devils Trap]

In before our new owners outbid everyone for Babcock

 

[mike30]

im waiting for the Babcock to NJ tweets

 

[Cheddabombs]

But how secretive will Shero be relative to Lou? I think I saw somewhere he likes to keep things hush-hush, but to the extent Lou did?

Apparently Bob forgot us lol

@TSNBobMcKenzie: According to @TSNAaronWard, DET is out on Babcock. BUF is out. That leaves TOR, STL and SJ.

 

[SKNJD9]

Dave lozo just tweeted out in the midst of all the Babcock mania " devils need a coach "

 

[Devils Trap]

Blues out as well LOL

 

[NJDevs26]

Mm oops guess Mirtle retweeted something fake

 

[Devils Trap]

Only teams left are SJ/Toronto and Us who are looking for a coach and havent been ruled out

 

[Emperoreddy]

This is so stupid.

How much did the Leafs offer him I want to know. He is going to get Clarkson money.

8 million per year according to reports

I'm sorry but that is insanity for a coach.

Also let Oates talk. Gets him out of here.

San Jose is out

NJ and Toronto the only teams to not say anything yet and still need a coach

He's clearly lost his marbles out there. Interviewing guys like Pete, Carlyle, and Oates.

What a mess.

It's not San Jose, Sharks for sure are OUT on Babcock. Sharks focused on long list of other candidates right now

Guess it's Toronto, unless a mystery candidate sneaks in.

It's either Toronto or Lou pulled another one out of his hat a la the Kovy/Cory trades

This reminds me of the Parise nonsense where every other team was out before the actual announcement of where he was going

 

[Bleedred]

In before Babcock to Devils, and we get a pop as loud as the one during the Cory trade at the draft.
