John Tortorella will not return as coach of the Vegas Golden Knights
LAS VEGAS (AP) --- John Tortorella will not return as coach of the Vegas Golden
Knights after guiding them to the Stanley Cup Final on an interim basis.
General manager Kelly McCrimmon announced Tuesday that Tortorella would not be
back.
"We thank Torts for the guidance he provided our team since joining the
organization in March," McCrimmon said. "When the decision was made to bring
Torts to Vegas, we needed an immediate impact to help us at a pivotal point in
the season. Torts' experience and leadership proved to be the boost that we
were looking for, helping guide us to the Stanley Cup Final. We are grateful
for Torts' passion, sincerity, and commitment to our organization, and we wish
him and his family the best."
McCrimmon hired Tortorella on March 30 when he fired Bruce Cassidy with eight
games left in the season. The Golden Knights won seven of them and then got
through three rounds before losing to Carolina in six games in the final.
