Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And I think that's the...

Canucks Central

that's where a lot of the skepticism comes from.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

So no matter what the Canucks do, it kind of gets, gets turned into like, Oh, I can't believe they're doing it this way.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

I can't believe they're doing that.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And I can't blame people for being skeptical and pessimistic, but it just feels like whatever the Canucks do, people are not convinced.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

Yeah, I'm completely with you.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And that's why, and I'm not saying I don't want to see an inexperienced candidate because I think those guys can have a lot of success.

Canucks Central

But we do know it's very difficult to ask somebody that has never been a GM, not only to be the GM, but also be the quote-unquote hockey czar who's going to be handling the business side of things and also managing up towards ownership.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

To me, it takes a level of skill and experience to be able to do that side of things.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And I'm not saying this is going to happen, but if you're not hiring two people, which is still a possibility, I think a lot of things are still possible here, is that at least if you go with an experienced person, that person can then in three months, four months, five months or whatever, to also take on the duties of the president role or whatever.

And then that person can bring in...

Canucks Central

whoever they feel is going to be their coworker or right-hand man, you want to call them the GM, um, the person who does most of the hockey stuff that would make more sense.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

Cause there would be more unification, but even so, like, I am so curious to see how they sequence all this stuff out.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

Cause what we don't want to see is bring in an inexperienced person.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And then two months later, hire somebody above that person to be the president again.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

And it's just like, you got to make sure that we're going to be on the same page.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

Yeah.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

Well, I hear you and I think you're bang on on all that stuff.

Canucks Central
Buffalo Sabres Fandom + Canucks Need to be Ahead of the Curve

Completely agree.
