Um, and that if they were going to have a larger say that he was their guy, that was their choice.
Um, with that.
I think there's so many interesting things to look at here because Ryan Johnson has paid his dues.
He's worked his way through the organization.
He's been at this for 14 years now, but he's never run a team.
He's seen how a team is run, but he's only ever seen it from one perspective, really.
I mean, there have been regime changes and everyone has a little bit of a different style, but
He hasn't sat in the chair before, and that can be a positive and a negative.
I just wonder, in the end, for the Sedins having increased say, who don't have any front office experience really themselves, outside of jumping on the ice and working with players in a development role, there's a lot to learn here, and there's a lot of things to nail.
And that starts with the drafting.
So they've got some, I think, probably a head start on...
that spot with how they want to see things come together and obviously have a really good draft pick to begin the process.
But I wonder in the end how valuable it would have been to have an outside fresh perspective that hasn't been sucked into the way the Canucks do things.
I don't.
I just think in the end, he wasn't the winning candidate.
I've seen lots of speculation about dollars or whatever else.
I think there's been a tug of war the entire time.
I think there's been a whole camp of Vancouver Canucks people that have been trying to champion the case of Ryan Johnson that ultimately just won out.
And I think the Sedins were the last two to tip the scale.
That would be my read of the situation.
