You can use the below two ways to change the format as desired-

First:

    var originalFormat = new Date('2014-12-24');
    var newFormat = (originalFormat.getMonth() + 1)+'-'+originalFormat.getDate()+'-'+originalFormat.getFullYear();
    alert(newFormat);

Second:

Use this library- https://github.com/jacwright/date.format

You could look at .split() and split the string on '-'

var oldDate = "2014-12-24";
var arrDate = oldDate.split('-');
//arrDate has three elements (y, m, d)
var newDate = arrDate[1]+'/'+arrDate[2]+'/'+arrDate[0];
//newDate = 12/24/2014
