Welcome Back Johnny Mac

After Jacques Lemaire retired, there was alot of speculation as to who the new coach would be. Some rumors were Ken Hitchcock, Mario Tremblay and Michel Therrien. After a long wait, it was announced that John MacLean will be the new head coach of the Devils.

MacLean was an assistant coach for the Devils for seven seasons and last year he was the coach of the Lowell Devils. He led them to a playoff berth and their best record since the franchise was formed.

I think MacLean is the best for the Devils. He is a "players coach" which might be exactly what the team needs. It may be a rough start but the Devils are in for a good season
