I played an entire season in Franchise mode, at the end of the season both of my NHL and AHL goalie coaches retired. I went to hire replacements on July 1st and found two coaches that had a teaching specialty of goalie. When I offered them contracts they both said they would have been happy to sign with my team but the position was already filled. You need to allow for us to hire goalie coaches. By the way even if I demote a coach to the goalie coach position leaving an assistant coach spot available when I then go to hire an assistant coach to fill that now vacant spot it says the same thing, 'That he would of loved to join the team but the position is already filled.'

    This was a UI issue. Thanks to, Tomek57  for directing me to where you set the hiring position, just below the the amount you're paying the coach.
