Devils coach Jacques Lemaire will not return next season, he told the Star-Ledger. "No [I won't return even if I'm asked]. Because I find that it's tough," Lemaire, 65, said. "I'm not at the end of the season yet. I still have two to three months to go and we'll have tough days. You get back from road trips, I get more tired than when I was 40." Lemaire led the Devils to their first Stanley Cup in franchise history in 1994-95.
