By the way, the name Ray Whitney came up in that clip.
And I do want to just very briefly discuss this because Ray,
This sort of came about yesterday and the day prior.
And it started... I'm not sure if it actually started with, but it got a lot of oxygen courtesy that Spittin' Chicklets ecosystem because Whitney's pretty tight with Biz and Keith Yandel from their time together in the Coyotes organization.
He's extremely close with Shane Doan.
Also, there are ties.
to Jim Rutherford from their time together in the Carolina Hurricanes organization.
Whitney and Rutherford won a Stanley Cup together in 2006.
Whitney's got a long and decorated NHL career.
He played over 1300 games.
He played for almost two decades.
His role as an executive...
is pretty minimal.
He spent some time in the Canes organization as a scout, some time in the Coyotes organization also as a scout, and then he was a coach of one of their junior teams.
They're like, it'd be cool if we like, should we go run the Canucks?
I think they did that, what you're talking about, at the Spangler.
I think Doan was the head GM and Whitney was the assistant GM, but I think it was like, wouldn't it be cool if we ran a team?
They're like, yeah, let's do it.
So it was pretty fun at the Spengler Cup.
