Thanks for poaching another good player for us.
The wave is no move.
Here's the door.
I should have said this when you brought up Van.
Jim Rutherford will step down as president of hockey operations for Vancouver.
I guess he'll stay on in an advisory role.
I mean, obviously, Canucks fans, the way things have gone, they're not thrilled right now.
But this guy's career and what he did in Carolina and what he did in Pittsburgh, I always think of him as he was early on making trades.
When he wanted to make a trade, he wouldn't wait till the deadline.
He was always earlier.
And then he gave guys more time to be a part of the team.
And I mean, I don't know if you know him at all, Juice.
Yeah, I do.
I've talked to Jim before.
Three Stanley Cups.
You look at the teams that he assembled in both those teams, both those cities that you just mentioned, fast, skilled, right?
Like fans like to watch fast, skilled teams.
So I'm glad that he's staying on in some sort of role because I think it's always great to have guys with winning resumes to bounce things off of and just kind of oversee everything.
Yeah, love that.
I mean, I'm looking at the Carolina team that he was behind that won the Stanley Cup.
