I'd still probably take that news over Ward returning as HC.
Have there been any cases where a team has a head coach, and news leaks that they are actively interviewing other people? I can't recall. I can see Treliving being extra cautious about not wanting any inside information leaked, out of respect to Ward.

I am not sure what they discussed when they named Ward interim coach. Maybe they told him the interim HC tag reverted back to AC once the season concluded.
I know it is a completely different situation, but I recall the Flames were open about actively pursuing a permanent HC when Al MacNeil was named the interim coach after Gilbert was fired.
