I think other coaches as well that are up now too might say, listen, if I'm terminated...
I have the right to go seek employment anywhere in the league, any one of the 31 teams.
And they'll try to put it in.
Why wouldn't they after, you know, like that's usually necessity is a mother invention, whatever that saying is, is, you know, probably why some coaches will look to do that and whether the teams sort of allow that.
I don't know.
That's another question, but I don't,
i would i would ask for it next time is that has the team ever done this to another coach not to a head coach you know what happens a lot and is teams will call and ask for permission to talk to maybe your head coach in the american league to become an assistant in your organization that happens all the time and teams don't want to lose an asset because they haven't fired them right they're they're under contract they want to keep them
some teams will let a guy go in that situation.
A lot won't.
Usually if you ask for, well, look at Edmonton, did they ask the Rangers for permission to talk to now block?
He was in Hartford.
They granted it.
So that part of it does happen.
You know, if a guy has a chance to be head coach in the NHL.
So I think it's a different situation, but no, not after a guy has been fired.
I mean, the, the ironic part is,
you know, Vegas had to get permission from Philly to hire Torch.
So, you know, like, so it, it, it happens.
It happens a lot.
Well, I mean, I've talked to Kelly McCormick.
