Of course, Manny Malhotra was introduced as the head coach of the Canucks to the media today.
We had a great chat with him on Canucks Central.
If you missed it, you can check it out on the podcast on the Canucks Central feed.
A great conversation.
We spoke to Lana Ferraro as well.
So a lot for you to catch up on on the Canucks Central podcast.
And another piece of developing news in terms of a new addition for the Vancouver Canucks is
is Darren Hermiston, a player agent who looks to be joining the Canucks front office at some capacity.
Is it an AGM?
Is it a player development?
I know I won't mention the focus is going to be on the player development side per his reporting.
We'll see exactly what the title is, but he looks to be joining the organization.
And one of his most notable clients in terms of who Canuck fans will be familiar with are Steve Baines.
So obviously somebody who knows how to work with younger players and developing hockey players.
This is one of those... I can't sit here and tell you 100% about the pedigree of Hermiston and what he can do and whatnot.
But if you're not going out and targeting the bigger names and the more expensive front office additions, what you have to find is...
the next group of guys, the guys that are coming up through the ranks and through the player development side.
Sometimes you go through the agency side, you go through the scouting side, guys that had smaller roles, for instance, even.
But if you're not spending top dollar, the way you go out and find the really good execs is finding the ones that haven't got the opportunity yet.
And hopefully, Darren is a strong addition and somebody that can give the Canucks an edge in that department.
