The Detroit Red Wings dismissed head coach Derek Lalonde and tabbed Todd McLellan to replace him, the club announced Thursday.
Detroit signed McLellan to a multi-year contract and brought in Trent Yawney as an assistant coach while firing associate coach Bob Boughner.
Lalonde was in his third season behind the Red Wings' bench. Detroit is 13-17-4 in 2024-25, which puts the club second-last in the Atlantic Division.
