NASHVILLE -- The Buffalo Sabres and Florida Panthers still have coaching vacancies and one candidate available to them is Pittsburgh Penguins assistant Rick Tocchet.
Tocchet, whose name has been linked to both teams in various reports and rumors, said he hasn't had a single conversation with executives from the Sabres or Panthers yet.
"I'd love to have another kick at it, but honestly I haven't been contacted by anybody," Tocchet said after the Penguins practiced at Bridgestone Arena on Sunday. "I'm just focused on [the Stanley Cup Final]. I have no idea what's going to happen at the end of the year."
