## Resource

Vegas Golden Knights are still stalling on letting former coach Bruce Cassidy interview with other teams, despite him leading them to their only Stanley Cup — a move that’s drawing criticism and even NHL Coaches’ Association backlash. After initially citing playoffs as the reason for delay, the GM’s excuse now feels hollow. While Toronto was granted permission (though they hired Jim Hiller), the Oilers — still in need of a coach — were reportedly denied, fueling suspicions Vegas is trying to block Cassidy from rivals. It’s time for Vegas to let him move on; he’s a proven winner who deserves a fair shot without this messy limbo. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
