FRESH STARTS: Which New NHL Coaches Have the Best Chances of Succeding This Year?

There are six new head coaches that were hired across the NHL this season and each coach faces a different challenge. Whether it's Jim Hiller in Toronto, Mike Babcock in Edmonton, Peter DeBoer on Long Island, Manny Malhotra in Vancouver, Peter Laviolette in Los Angeles or Ryan Craig in Vegas, we discuss the obstacles they face and who has the best chance to hit the ground running. Plus, the Pittsburgh Penguins just signed Ville Koivunen, a young winger with two career NHL goals in 47 games, to an eight-year extension with a $4 million AAV.
