According to ESPN's Emily Kaplan on Saturday, Trotz appears to have reached an agreement with the Las Vegas Golden Knights. This news may come as a surprise to some, but the Golden Knights have a reputation for making big moves, including the hiring of one of the most sought-after coaches in recent memory.
"A few people in the league have suggested to me that there could be a deal in place already with Barry Trotz and Vegas Golden Knights," said Kaplan. "Just knowing the way Vegas does business but we'll have to wait to see where Barry Trotz lands before the rest of the chips fall."
"Every year in the coaching market there's a shiny new toy and this year it's Barry Trotz. I do think there's going to be some movement this week with the NHL Scouting Combine. That's when a lot of GMs begin their first round of interviews and meetings with people."
