What do you think is going to happen with Ryan Johnson?

You've hinted at this a little bit in your writing about

maybe ryan johnson being too nice of a guy for the decision makers in the connects organization or you know i've i've heard that as well but just through like rumors and speculation i haven't heard it from the horse's mouth but you know this notion that ryan johnson isn't isn't a killer um you know what do you think there's something to that and if so what do you think of it

You can be nice and be extremely competitive at the same time.

Character, I think is the word that I would throw out there in a lot of cases, frankly.

Sure.

iMac, you've been covering this team for a long time.

You know what a good team looks like.

You know what a bad team looks like.

Where do you think the Canucks are right now?

Are you on board with Jim Rutherford's optimism about what they have right now?

What's he done to turn Brock Nelson into a Selkie finalist?

I saw that and I was like, Brock Nelson?

I don't think he's ever been in the Selkie conversation and all of a sudden he's a finalist.

And you always see a guy like that

on a Stanley Cup contender like you got Nick Suzuki in Montreal I mean you go back to the Canucks right 2011 just happened to be the year that Kessler won the Selkie and you need those types of guys in the playoffs and I didn't know that Brock Nelson could be that guy but apparently he is yeah well I think what Brock Nelson did is stabilize the position for them because really they had as good as they've been they they had a gap there they try at second line center they tried to

Yeah, I think he's under the radar, though.

I think you can say that.

Yeah, a vote.

Just a vote.
