And he essentially said, we've discussed it.

And if it does come to pass that the Canucks draft Caleb, Manny's okay with it.

He would not take the job otherwise.

And the Canucks are okay with Manny being the coach and drafting Caleb if that does come to pass because they've already talked about these things and they're on the same page.

That does not mean the Canucks will inevitably draft Caleb Malhotra third overall because a number of things.

One, he might go before that.

Unlikely, but he could.

And the second part is maybe somebody they have higher than Caleb is there at three.

So there's no guarantee here that the Canucks end up taking him.

But...

I've thought about this a lot, and we've spoken quite a bit about this, that I don't think it's ideal for a first-time NHL head coach to also be the coach of his son.

Now, there's a good chance Caleb's going to college anyways and is a year away, but nonetheless, you're talking about very early on in his head coaching career as an NHL coach.

At the end of next season.

Yes.

Now, at the same time, you can't always strive for perfection.

Essentially, I'm not going to do it, but basically, chasing perfection leads to you... Like, perfection is the enemy of good, right?

Yes.

Essentially paraphrasing what he had to say.
