Jacques Lemaire Informs Devils He's Out As Coach

Jacques Lemaire is walking away from the head coach job with the New Jersey Devils. After failing to take the team out of the 1st round, Lemaire has quit.

Lemaire had this to say, "It's not the team, it is not the result or the lack of result we had in the playoffs,"

"It's not that at all. It's the end of the line. I'll be 65. It's just time."

It's been reported that he will stay within the Devils organization in some capacity. Not sure yet what that role is.

TSN has the full story.
