Washington Capitals head coach Barry Trotz has his job waiting for him should he decide to carry on in the role next season, Capitals’ general manager Brian MacLellan said after they won the Stanley Cup.
“He’s under contract until July 1,” MacLellan said. “If he wants to be back, he’ll be back.”
As far Trotz is concerned, he ‘absolutely’ is open to a return.
“I said to Brian, ‘There’s no reason that I don’t want to be there,'” Trotz said.
“These are my kids,” Trotz said of the team. “I mean, this is a pretty special group. We’ll talk, and I’m not worried one way or another. I’ve been doing this for a long time. I don’t lose any sleep over it.”
