Brawndo Posted June 18, 2018 Report Posted June 18, 2018 Lou, it’s Barry, how is the weather on the Island this time of year?
WildCard Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) @FriedgeHNIC We had believed Trotz was a free agent this summer. That’s not correct. There was a two-year extension if he won the Cup in WASH. But, as coaches’ contracts have exploded in value, it was below the current market. Both sides tried to negotiate an extension.... @FriedgeHNIC 5m5 minutes ago But they could not come to terms. Trotz is now a free agent, as WASH will grant permission to other teams who want to talk to him. 3/3 Edited June 18, 2018 by WildCard

WildCard Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) Wow, what a ######up. Think this is the 3rd coach in league history to do this. Bowman did it a ton, however it was always to move up to a better position. The guy from the NYR did it after they won in...1994? And now Trotz Disclaimer: I could be wrong with that, there may be one more guy It's possible he takes time off, but probably unlikely. In the past 40 years, only four Stanley Cup-winning coaches did not return to their team the next season. In 2002, Red Wings coach Scotty Bowman retired. Also after winning in 1979 with the Montreal Canadiens, Bowman left for a promotion -- to become Buffalo's GM. In 1991, Pittsburgh's Bob Johnson stepped away because of illness. And then there's the outlier: Mike Keenan. Two weeks after winning the Cup with the Rangers in 1994, Keenan abruptly quit due to a dispute with management. Edit: I was close, but still off. Thought Bowman did it 3-4 times http://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/23732808/2018-stanley-cup-final-washington-capitals-coach-barry-trotz-options-winning-cup-new-contract-nhl Edited June 18, 2018 by WildCard
Brawndo Posted June 18, 2018 Report Posted June 18, 2018 Jeremy White Tweeted this, it probably means nothing but with his Sabre Source, one must wonder.. https://twitter.com/jeremywgr/status/1008790117430059008?s=21 Also John Shannon Tweeted this Beyond the only team without a coach...NYI...Don't be surprised is we hear of teams wondering if their Coaching can be improved with the hiring of Trotz. Will be interesting.
WildCard Posted June 18, 2018 Author Report Posted June 18, 2018 @DarrenDreger If Tavares and the Isles don’t have a deal by this time next week, expect JT to visit with 3-5 teams in LA.
LGR4GM Posted June 18, 2018 Report Posted June 18, 2018 @DarrenDreger If Tavares and the Isles don’t have a deal by this time next week, expect JT to visit with 3-5 teams in LA. The Leafs made a hype/recruiting video for him.

He didn't want to play for the Panthers, that's what happened. We offered him a favourable contract and he refused it." Man that team in Florida sounds like a clusterf##k

Trettioåtta Posted June 19, 2018 Report Posted June 19, 2018 UFA and RFA looks pretty thin on the ground for LWs. Maybe Vanek would like to return for a couple years and the retire a Sabre. Could give us a pretty potent powerplay. Plus he was always lazy as and good at taking a beating in front of the net, so age might not be too bad on him. ROR - Reino - Okposo Eichel - Risto Vanek - Mittelstadt - Pominville Scandella - Dahlin
