While Jersey’s fanbase wants to plead its case, the Nashville Predators are a bigger disappointment than the New Jersey Devils are this season.
Believe it or not, but the Devils weren’t picked by anyone to advance to the Stanley Cup Final last season or for the 2019-20 campaign. The Music City was expected to potentially hoist its first Stanley Cup if not last year, then this June.
The Predators announced on Monday that the organization officially relieved Peter Laviolette of his head coaching duties, and it’s fair to say that he’s a front runner for teams looking to turn their fortunes moving forward and into next season.
