Tortorella and Sullivan both have a year remaining on their contracts with Tampa Bay which is why the Isles needed permission, the former coach reportedly was making 1.3 million.
NYI Fan Central Comments:
Mike Sullivan was the former Bruins coach for those who recall. Larry Brooks will not be a happy man if the Isles come to terms with Tortorella.
Let the games begin.
Anyone else have a flashback to summer 1995 after that video when the Isles last hired a relatively successful coach. Of course Tortorella comes with a Stanley Cup ring.
