The leaks have been minimal right now through this process, guys.

So there's been a lot of confusion.

There's been a lot of, you know, I think a search for answers.

And when things are quiet, you know, sometimes information gets out there that may be close

the fact that they talked to a lot of people really created some confusion early on.

And I think some of the reporting was probably centered around that and some of the conversation.

So, you know, over the last 24 hours with the Ryan Johnson, you know, leading the race, so to speak, and with the Sadeen's,

looking like they're going to be in a senior role.

A couple of things stand out for me when it comes to Ryan Johnson.

We knew he was going to be a part of this conversation.

I was on with you guys a couple of weeks ago.

I believe there's one listener that did not buy it.

Well, I hope you're buying it now because it seems like he's in the front of that race.

And Johnson was always going to be a part of this conversation, right?

Going back three or four years, he was being tipped as somebody to watch in the NHL for a GM job.

Now, the Sedin is a surprise one to me because

If this does happen, which it seems like it will, what will this role encompass, right?

Is this a helping leadership within the organization, whether that's executive leadership and players?

Is that overall creating a better culture in the organization?

And will there be hockey operations strategic direction as well?
