@SinBinVegas There are too many changes in the roster, and the players are not flexible enough to adapt.

"Somewhere along the way we lost our spirit and we lost our energy as a team." -McCrimmon

@DannyWebster21 “Without cheating!” What does he mean by that?
English
Seeing some comments on Stone not taking accountability. Before this answer, he did.
"I think you see some guys struggling. I think he’s going to come in here and try and help with a lot of guys. I mean, I’m one of those guys that have been struggling. Our best players haven’t been our best players. I think he’s going to try and encourage us to get back in the game without cheating."

Mark Stone on if Bruce Cassidy’s message wasn’t sticking: “It could be. For whatever reason, it just didn’t show in our play. There was some good hockey played at times, but I keep coming back to the emotion. It wasn’t there for whatever reason.”
English
@DannyWebster21 Motivational discord is generated at the individual level. If you lack it, you either need a change of environment, tasks, or a new challenge. I say, stop passing the buck!

@RitaHoman1 I am not against the change. I just feel bad for Cassidy. The FO is giving what the players have protested. Let’s see if Tort can manage this Gen Z group. It will be proven later that the it’s not always the coach’s fault but the work ethics of the players.
English
Yes, I agree, gotta give Torts a chance, he is not the one that fired Bruce. Should not be comparing his decisions against what people think Bruce would of done either. That's just not fair to Torts

Even with time to reflect on this, I still don't like the move. But what I won't do is resent Tortorella because of that fact. I really hope the rest of the fan base joins me in that sentiment. Lehner didn't deserve it before with Fleury, and Torts doesn't deserve it here.
English
@TDChrisG I feel bad for Bruce, but some of the players protested this to happen.They think ousting Cassidy will veil their deficiencies.Let’s see if those players can manifest from the extreme coaching of a Drill Sergeant. Maybe Marner will no longer play as a center.
English
Good morning, Vegas. How are we feeling about the coaching change after a night of sleep?
English
My roommate, who has gotten interested in hockey because of me, doesn’t know who Tortorella is. She has no idea the evening that is ahead of her. I’ve got YouTube videos queued up already. #VegasBorn
English
@qndarwin @frank_seravalli Tort is a Drill Sergeant and do not tolerate BS. So yeah, this move is to wake up those high paying players to get their sh*t together, specifically the goaltender.
English
@frank_seravalli Operative word being “attempting”, haven’t been great this season and Torts is a step down from Cassidy. The wake up call might give the a jolt but that’s about it.
English
Can’t do anything but marvel at the absolute ruthless nature with which the Vegas Golden Knights operate.
No one is bulletproof. No acquisition is impossible. No one thing will stand in the way of attempting to win.
Perhaps no more fascinating organization in pro sports.
English
Friedman reiterated that the VGK team has a goaltending issue this season. FO will probably assess the issue first under Tort; then Burke will be next to go if the problem persists.

Today, the Golden Knights made a surprise head coach change, and @FriedgeHNIC weighs in on the move 👀
English
@SinBinVegas The Knights need a whooping anyway; Tort will teach them a lesson they won’t forget. 😉
English
One of the most common refrains about the reasoning behind bringing in John Tortorella is that he gets the most out of teams quickly.
History remembers it differently...
Tortorella's first 10 games with new team
Philadelphia: 5-5-0 (Missed playoffs)
Columbus: 2-8-0 (Missed playoffs)
Vancouver: 5-4-1 (Missed playoffs)
New York: 6-3-1 (Playoffs: First Round Lost in 7)
Tampa Bay: 1-9-0 (Missed playoffs)
New York: 0-3-1 (Missed playoffs)
Combined: 19-32-2
English
@VGK_Outsider_ Now VGK is stuck with Hill’s contract until 2030 with $6.25 AAV. No team is willing to buy that contract with .866 save %. Schmid who gets paid $875K has a higher save % (.899) than Hill.
English
The rhetoric that Logan Thompson didn't want to be IN VEGAS, and that's why he was traded, is completely false.
He wanted a larger role on the team, like as a starter, and clearly, he was capable of taking on such a role.
Management said Hill is their guy, hence LT was moved.
English
@GoldenKnights This news sucks! The downside of sports is that the coach always gets fired despite the players’ deficiencies. Cassidy was a good coach.The slow-a$$e$ in the back row were just too dense to collaborate effectively.
English
You helped us reach our ultimate goal in 2023 by bringing a Stanley Cup to Vegas. Thank you, Bruce!
English
@Kimberkayper I searched the internet to get an in-depth definition of “quiet group.” AI nailed it. Lol Due to the drastic change in VGK’s roster, miscommunication happens a lot on ice, which leads to TOs all the time and lose the games.
English
@nickyrian I keep going back to when Bruce said this was a quiet group, that makes me think there’s something up with the room
English
@SinBinVegas I blame the players. I mean they are adults, and they don’t need to be micro-managed.
English
Bruce Cassidy won the Stanley Cup with the Vegas Golden Knights 1,020 days ago.
He went 127-77-34 (.605) in the 2.9 seasons since.
Absolutely ludicrous.
English
@stevemcomedy My sister’s prediction yesterday was that the Panthers and VGK would swap coaches. I said put Tort so the Knights would learn their lesson, and it happened. OMG! I was just joking yesterday at the gathering. Lol
English
@nickyrian You’re correct, it’s easier to replace a coaches contract that doesn’t effect the salary cap
English
Don’t be surprised when Cassidy is hired again in the eastern conference
He won’t be out of work long
Thank you Butch, we appreciate you and the cup win!
Best wishes

@KnightsMuse_ The players needed a wake up call. Maybe Cassidy wasn’t so hard on them. Tort is the type who doesn’t tolerate BS. He’ll bench anyone underperforming (e.g. Patrik Laine).
English
Bruce Cassidy has been fired as the head coach of the Vegas Golden Knights.
Good or bad?
English
@SinBinVegas The Knights are about to learn the hard way…harder than Cassidy’s coaching. They’ll better brace themselves.
English
John Tortorella's record is 115-133-45 (.469) in his last 4 seasons as an NHL head coach.
He has won two playoff series since 2013.
He has not guided a team to a division championship since 2012 and has failed to finish above 3rd in 10 consecutive seasons.
English
@SinBinVegas Wow! In a 9-year span, VGK has changed coach 3x. Well, Tort does not tolerate a country club attitude. He’ll bench anyone who is underperforming.
English
The Golden Knights have fired Bruce Cassidy and hired John Tortorella.
English
@GoldenKnights What?! Is this for real? If the players think Cassidy is hard on them, well, they should know that Tort really cracks the whip. They’ll be spending lots of time in the dungeon honing their skills.
English
The Vegas Golden Knights have relieved Bruce Cassidy of his duties as head coach.
John Tortorella has been named head coach.
