George McPhee is making a list.

The general manager of the Vegas Golden Knights is considering former NHL bench bosses Craig Berube and Kirk Muller among a list of candidates as the first head coach in Sin City, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Berube, 51, served as head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers for two seasons, most recently in 2015. The Flyers were eliminated in the opening round of the playoffs in Berube's first year, while a postseason miss in his second season ultimately led to his firing. Berube currently serves as head coach of the Chicago Wolves, the St. Louis Blues' AHL affiliate.

Muller, 50, served as head coach of the Carolina Hurricanes for three seasons, most recently in 2014, after five seasons as an assistant coach with the Montreal Canadiens. Muller never made the playoffs in three years in Raleigh. He has since returned to the Canadiens, where he serves as associate coach.

Both coaches have connections to McPhee. Muller and McPhee were teammates in the New Jersey Devils organization during the 1988-89 season, while Berube played part of three seasons with the Washington Capitals while McPhee served as GM.

The Golden Knights expect to make a coaching announcement in March or April.
