The New Jersey Devils are making some changes to their coaching staff, but Sheldon Keefe will remain as head coach.
The New Jersey Devils are making some changes to their coaching staff, but Sheldon Keefe won’t be among those changes.
Yesterday afternoon, the Devils announced that goaltending coach Dave Rogalski had been relieved of his duties, while assistant coach Sergei Brylin will be taking on a new role within the organization.
Shortly after those announcements, Elliotte Friedman and Pierre LeBrun confirmed that Keefe will remain as the Devils’ head coach.
