We all know was only a matter of time until Shero found a job; though, I'm not sure exactly what it is about Jersey which he apparently found so much more palatable than the other jobs which have been out there for the past year. And, I assume essentially everyone is waiting for him to extend the HC opportunity to Disco Dan.
While the Press seems to be treating Shero with an unusual amount of reverence, they're at least taking care to report how different the Devils situation.....which I think most consider to be a full teardown/rebuild.....is versus what he acquired in Pittsburgh (which had Flower, Sid, and Geno already in the pipeline). He's being properly questioned for, at best, his middling Draft history; and nobody has a clue how much Lou will leave him truly alone (which I myself don't think will happen). In other words, it seems the jury will/should be out on him for a job which will obviously demand him to make a fair number of correct player selection decisions.
I know the jury is also out on how many current (Shero hires) members of the Penguins GM staff.....meaning Jason Botteril, Tom McMillan, and Billy Guerin.....might be candidates to move onto his new Staff. Assuming Botteril indeed wants to be a GM, I don't see how it makes much sense for him to leave; though I don't think anyone knows when he's going to get elevated in Pittsburgh after GMJR's comments last week. I think he could be more likely to leave Pittsburgh now; though not necessarily for Jersey. Maybe McMillan is a little more likely to follow GMRS, though he's a long-time franchise employee. As for Guerin, I can't say where his current loyalty lies between the two (though, I'd tend to default to Pittsburgh).
I admit I always liked Shero as an individual, though I won't have any trouble rooting against him in Jersey.
