Taylor: “Rick Tocchet at the moment, his current contract pays him $ 2.75 million per season. I have it as the 10th best paid coach of the National Hockey League. What is looking for?”
Dhaliwal: “I think he is looking for more than four, donation. I think he is trying to be in the upper level. You mentioned the top 10, maybe sneak in the top five. They spoke a contract this weekend. No extension yet. They will continue to work there. For this moment, there is work to do.
Don't you think, not in a perfect world, wouldn't it have been great to come at 10 am (Monday) and to announce an extension for Tocchet? I think there is work to do. I’m not saying it’s not going to happen. They could fill the gap today, tomorrow, maybe Wednesday. But right now, there is work to do on an extension of Tocchet.
Rumors of the NHL: Vancouver Canucks keeping all the options open with Elias Pettersson
They talked about the weekend, but he should be a number, I believe, more than four years. If they can have more than four, four and a half years, I don't know. Maybe they, maybe they do, donate. “”
Taylor: “Here are the coaches in and about $ 4 million. Paul Maurice won a Stanley Cup last year with the Florida Panthers of $ 3.9 million. Pete Deboer Dallas Stars, did not have a cup, I think I'm just on this Laviolette figure was with the Hurricanes, and not the Rangers, Bednar with the avalanche, both $ 4.9 million.
Dhaliwal: “Yes, it seems right. I think, I think the magic number is four. I don't think in the three will do it. I would be surprised if a number in the three done, don. But I would not be surprised if a number in the four fact.”
