And I think that's a real possibility with how the draft lottery shook out last night.

Really quickly, just to sort of put a bow on it, something that I heard is like the team approach, the idea of a full team being brought in, I think is beginning to take some shape.

I agree with Rick that the timeline's not expedited here, that that matches what I'm hearing, but I do think there's some possibility that a president of hockey operations could be announced even before the draft, sort of expediting Rutherford's shift to being a consultant.

And I do think that there's going to be a need to fill both roles, given that, like, I don't think that it's decided yet that Rutherford's going to be, like, in Vancouver.

Like, this step back from the day-to-day is going to be a pretty significant shift here for the organization.

And, you know, that's a lot of experience going out the door.

I mean, as much experience as anyone's got in the league, right?

So, you know, experience has been a big theme of this search, as Rick will tell you, right?

I'm curious to...

sort of see how Rutherford's departure from the day-to-day part of running hockey operations influences not just who is the president and the general manager, but the timeline with which those two people are named.

General manager is the priority.

That we expect relatively soon.

But I wouldn't be stunned if this is like an omnibus announcement of sort of more significant hockey operations leadership, like a team being unveiled to the fan base when the final I's are dotted and the T's crossed.

Yeah, no arranged marriages.

Come on.

There's how you end a show.

Scotty was Canadian.

And so was Captain Kirk.

Scotty was Canadian.

I knew somebody other than William Shatner.
