What if Bruce Cassidy ultimately gets permission but doesn't want to go to Edmonton?

That's possible.

He might look at the Los Angeles situation, and there's a sense that Kenny Holland might just extend the interim tag on DJ, depending on how things go.

Maybe Vegas doesn't give Cassidy permission to speak to a division rival like Edmond.

So then when you get past Bruce Cassidy...

Who's better?

Yeah.

I had an exchange with David a while back, just at Gage.

And I'm talking about a month or so ago.

And I just wanted to – it was after Denver won again.

And I'm like, okay, you weren't ready to join Chicago a year or so ago.

Are you ready now?

And he didn't really answer the question.

This guy's a sharp young guy.

He really, truly is.

There's a sense from some around him that for family reasons, it's not quite right.

But that's not specific to Toronto.

That's just a jump to the NHL.

I mean, maybe he could be convinced financially that the time is right.

I don't know, but that's the sense that I'm getting.
