Because their coach didn’t want to talk to reporters and the locker room remained closed to media representatives, the Vegas Golden Knights were severely punished. The National Hockey League (NHL) announced that coach John Tortorella was fined $100,000 for refusing to comment after Thursday’s 5-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks and a place in the NHL semifinals.
Draft pick lost!
In addition, the team has to watch the next draft in the second round and thus loses the right to choose a new player. An appeal against both sanctions is still possible, it said.
The NHL justified the penalties with blatant violations of media guidelines. Normally in North America the booths are accessible for interviews. The league said the Las Vegas team had previously been warned and asked to comply with guidelines.
