Not surprised, I figured he wouldn't want to wait and let GMs forget about him

Oh this will be fun(ny)

Devils are due for a huge bounce back season. If Hamilton is healthy and they get decent goaltending they'll be right up near the top of their division

Good for him.
I was hoping he would take a little time to recharge.
Maybe this is a good time for organizing moving the family.

This has jack Adams written all over it.

Get fired and then get a raise. Nice work if you can get it.

Keefe vs. Dubas in the Metro now, that'll be an interesting story line.

Good for him...I didn't find Keefe to be dislikable...just maybe slow at the wheel.

You'll get that on them big jobs.

Honestly it seems like a good fit to me.  New Jersey with competent goaltending is likely a playoff team.  They have a number of good skill players and get a big boost with Hamilton back next year on the blue line.  If they get a good goalie it seems like a good team to make the playoffs next year and I'm sure he'll get votes for coach of the year.
