Friday morning, Dallas Stars general manager Jim Nill announced that the club has relieved Pete DeBoer of his duties as head coach. DeBoer had one year remaining on his contract.
The Stars will now begin the search for a new coach. Nill will hold his end-of-season media availability Friday at 12 pm in Frisco.
“After careful consideration, we believe that a new voice is needed in our locker room to push us closer to our goal of winning the Stanley Cup,” Nill said in a statement released by the team. “We’d like to thank Pete for everything that he has helped our organization achieve over the past three seasons and wish him nothing but the best moving forward.”
DeBoer led the Stars to a 149-68-29 record and league-best .665 points percentage in his three seasons. Dallas lost in the Western Conference Final each year (2023 to the Vegas Golden Knights, 2024/2025 to the Edmonton Oilers).
The announcement comes shortly after some controversy and plenty of rumors surrounding DeBoer and the way he and the team finished the season. For more on that, check out these stories:
