So I would hope and assume, despite what Elliot said, that there's more of a plan in place, given how far along they've moved down this, than waiting to hear back.

Do you know what I mean?

Like, that's the part that concerns me a little bit.

Like...

How nebulous is this role?

How firm and how well-structured is this complete change if you're this far along in it and you're waiting for answers on what type of role two people that would presumably have prominent roles to take in it are willing to take and take on?

Now, the other part, too, is we've heard a ton from young players about the value of the Sedin twins on ice.

We've witnessed it at Rogers Arena post-practice.

I can't tell you how many times I've gone back out into the bowels, into the arena area after the coach speaks on a morning skate to watch the visiting team.

which they typically come on at 11.30, the Canucks have the ice 10.30 to 11.30, then the visitors come on for their morning skate, and the Twins, or at least one of them, are still out there with Jason Krogh working with the young players because as these young players have taken on more prominent roles and gotten more opportunities, there's more guys willing to stay out late.

it's not just the healthy scratches out there late working with these guys.

And when you see that coaching, when you see and you hear about the work they do down in Abbotsford and you hear how valuable it is to these young players, I do worry a little bit about losing that too, right?

And so the other part too is these are two guys whose moral compass is so strong.

And so having them for an organization that, and I've said this before, the culture problem does not exist just in the locker room.

it exists right to the top.

And then it's trickled throughout the organization.

And having two people of their sort of moral character in higher roles, that's got to be a good thing in terms of addressing that.

And yet they've always been lead by example guys as opposed to,

All of this other stuff's happened with them still involved in the organization.

They've never been ones to tell other people what to do or how they should behave.
