GM Pat Verbeek confirms the Ducks will retain Eakins, whose three-season contract is set to expire when the season ends April 29
SUNRISE, Fla. — Ducks general manager Pat Verbeek didn’t believe it was fair. After only two months on the job, he didn’t believe he had enough time to judge Dallas Eakins’ coaching abilities adequately. So, Verbeek decided to pick up the team’s contract option for the 2022-23 season.
the news broke Monday in the Southern California News Group that Eakins would be back on the job next season“I felt it was necessary,” Verbeek said. “Dallas has had to do a job under difficult circumstances. It’s been just two months under me, and I thought he deserved to get another year and go from there. We can build our relationship and figure out where the organization goes from here.
“Two months. I’ve known Dallas for two months now, essentially. I didn’t think it was fair to Dallas to say, ‘OK, that’s it.’ Do you know what I mean? I wanted to give him a chance. When I came in here, I wanted to give everyone a chance. That’s what I’m doing. That’s what I’m doing.” Verbeek accelerated Murray’s rebuilding process when he was hired Feb. 3. Murray resigned Nov. 10. Verbeek’s biggest moves to date were to trade veterans Nicolas Deslauriers, Hampus Lindholm, Josh Manson and Rickard Rakell before the March 21 trade deadline.
