wtf! The League is STILL recycling Tortellini!? The guy’s toxic, from what I’ve heard.
I think this is Torts 20th head coaching job.
Say it ain’t so…Yosemite Sam got hired AGAIN! This will be his 6th Team and everyone who played for hates the guy. You really have to wonder what the Executives think they’re getting when hire Yosemite Sam. He’s a short little guy, with loud and fowl mouth, who loves attention. I am shocked someone player hasn’t decked him yet for all the verbal abuse. He knows diddly squat about the game and is an embarrassment to the Team, the Franchise and the NHL. Indeed he has a Stanley Cup but anyone with 3 active brain cells would have. He should have won several but was gone the next year. It will NOT take long for him to make a spectacle of himself, he craves attention…often gets it…while the Team faulters.
Cassidy to Vancouver next season's? lol
This is the beginning of the end for vegas as a powerhouse.
Cassidy to the Leafs. You heard it hear first
Torts is gonna have a field day with marner lmao
First off, I'm a huge fan of the Fonz and thought he would have been the best choice for the Wings after Lalonde. The team really needs the whip and chair. With that said, I'm not so sure that he will be a good fit in Vegas.
Not Gonna Lie Cassidy Has Only Won One Cup And That When They Beat The Oilers In 2023
When is the NHL going to get some new coaching blood? Seriously tired of seeing these same old timers rotating team to team. The game has gotten faster and more skilled…unfortunately they play the old style.
Marner will be gone/traded before his contract expires
God awful decision from my knights
The end of the Knights is upon us
There is more to this than we know.
Not the Manchild at the beginning 🤣
Holy moly Tortorella isn't any better!!! He SUCKS!!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Looks like VGK gonna spiral to loserdum
Tortorella is a jerk, but he is a jerk who understands thr game and has success almost everywhere else hd has been.
This change should ig-knight the Vegas squad and propel them to the finals for sure
There is no reason that VGK continues to play so badly for all of the talent we have! The VGK is not playoff bound yet, we only have a 4 point lead for the last playoff spot!
8 game contract. He's a rental because the VGK needed somebody to blame and know they're done this season. I love the team but they are not winning anything this year.
Huge mistake!
Where is Larry Robinson? This feels very Larry Robinson taking over in New Jersey right now.
Shuffling of coaches in the NHL is becoming a joke.
Genuinely feel bad for Marner. Bro can’t catch a break
