Kleinendorst was an assistant coach for the Devils last season.=20
Besides scouting this season, he will also work with the United States =

Leach, 48, joins the Devils after spending the past two seasons as an=20
assistant coach with Atlanta. He spent three seasons as Robinson's =
assistant=20
with Los Angeles.=20
Leach was the coach of Hershey of the AHL from 1993-94 to 1995-96, and =
of=20
Springfield from 1991-93. His AHL teams won two division championships =
and=20
one conference playoff championship.=20
The Lexington, Mass., native began his NHL coaching career as an =

paige- >>
Some VERY interesting stuff there! It figures that the boldest =
changes Lou makes this off-season are the COACHING ones, although there =
could be something to that. I had a feeling Lou wasn't that impressed =
with Kleinendorst if Carpenter would get called up to replace him later =
in the year. I'm more than happy to see Carp in Albany as Cunniff really =
had worn out his welcome imo :P But the weird thing is TERRERI as Rats =
assistant... are ex goalies typically assistant coaches behind the =
bench? Or is he going to be an actual goalie coach instead?
I'm very happy to see Kinnear getting an assistant position with the =
Rats..... Geordie was a trooper and deserves this chance. I can't =
imagine it being a bad move, because he has the respect of the young =
guys and surely they can learn something from him.
