I think that different teams manage their contracts in different ways, meaning the language that they use.
And this one was pretty airtight.
So what do I mean by that?
Like, for instance, some contracts, when it comes to the termination part of it, are single-sided.
Some are mutual.
Some are one-sided just to the coach.
In this case,
and Bruce Cassidy mentioned a bit of this on spit and chiclets when he joined, he can't just walk away.
He could, he could walk away from the pay, but they still control whether or not he has permission to work somewhere.
So that stands out.
I don't think it's abnormal.
I truly believe that what has happened along the way is there's a lot of contracts that have been worded exactly like, or very similarly to Bruce Cassidy and,
and teams have put that language aside saying, hey, this is the right thing to do, and this is the custom and norm, and it hasn't typically been challenged and certainly hasn't been reviewed or scrutinized in a way that this one has been with Bruce Cassidy.
The league feels... Look, I mentioned this before.
Gary Bettman's one of the best labor lawyers in the world.
They're going to respect the terms of the contract, and Vegas has him airtight
in terms of his services that they don't have to let him go anywhere.
Oh, 100%.
Look, I'm not convinced that they're ever going to relent here, even if they win the Stanley Cup.
And part of that is because it's not really just about being in your division.
