Job security is basically an oxymoron in the world of professional coaching. The turnover rate right now in the NHL is wild. There are 124 teams in Major League Baseball, the NBA, the NFL and the NHL. Of those coaches, only 45% have been in their current jobs for more than two full seasons. The NFL has about 60% of its coaches going into Year 3 or more, and the rate is 53% for both MLB managers and NBA coaches. The list of NHL coaches in their current job for more than two years is just five out of 32, or 16%.
