  1. Great hire and we have a 4 strong cultural charaxter guys at the top. However will a lack of experience bite us..next hire(s) should be an experienced assistant GM and coaches

  2. First 2 really good steps for a long rebuild

    1. New GM
    2. New Coach

    Both have seem the same vision and trust each other making the right decisions and know this rebuild will take time

  3. Why anyone inside the NHL or outside the NHL would want to be Head Coach of Vancouver Canucks is concerning…Canucks would be the ideal NHL team to be the first NHL franchise Coached by A.I. instead…missed opportunity here…

  4. Manny was smart not to take the Leafs coaching job. He knows the Leafs have ruined many coaching careers. He's a great fit for the Canucks. Hopefully he can get things going in the right direction there.
