Chapter 2: How does Manny Malhotra plan to build his coaching staff?
Must be 19 or older and live in BC to play. Let's make a big impact together. A couple of things I want to promote coming up on the station. First of all, on Canucks Central, which is on today from 3 to 5, Sat and Bic will chat with Ivar Stenberg and... New Canucks head coach Manny Malhotra. So big show on Canucks Central coming up.
Make sure you tune in for that to hear from both Ivar Stenberg and new Canucks head coach Manny Malhotra. And possibly even more exciting than that, if you can believe it, at 2, directly following our show, Josh Elliott-Wolfe will be on the air with the People's Show.
So I don't know who's to say which is the bigger deal, Stenberg and Malhotra on Canucks Central or Josh Elliott-Wolfe coming up on the People's Show, but they're both coming up here. on the station over the next few hours.
Chapter 3: What does Manny Malhotra say about accountability and hard work in his coaching philosophy?
All right. It's been a different show today. So let's wrap up by going to the whiteboard.
All right. Now fellas, let's focus up.
It is your daily deep dive into what's up with the Canucks for today, June 4th. And we will start with the headline, which is, of course, to answer that Manny Malhotra speaks. And he is officially introduced as the newest head coach of the Vancouver Canucks and talk to the media at length live. from Rogers arena today.
And of course we reacted and shared a lot of our thoughts earlier in the show.
Chapter 4: What are the implications of Malhotra's transition from AHL to NHL for the Canucks?
You can go check that out on the, on your podcast feed, but we can go over some of it again. And there's some things we didn't touch on as well. And, you know, for anyone who didn't get a chance to hear it, I just want to play a clip that I think goes a long way to capturing kind of the tenor and the tone and the messaging of what Manny Malhotra had to say.
And that's especially focusing on the topics of energy and body language. Here's Manny Malhotra.
Well, when I talk about those same things, the energy and the body language, obviously I want the staff to reflect that. Guys who are motivated to come in and have that same mentality of wanting to get better. And obviously with a young group, there will be a great deal of teaching. So the ability... to teach goes along with your ability to communicate the message.
Chapter 5: How does the coaching style of Manny Malhotra differ from previous Canucks coaches?
So the staff that I'm looking for, again, will be along the same lines as myself. Guys that truly enjoy being at the rink, truly enjoy helping young players find their path and find their game. and have the energy to do it on a daily basis. That's kind of the overview of what I'll be looking for.
That's Manny Melhotra speaking specifically about how he's looking to fill out the rest of his staff and building on stuff he was talking about earlier in the press conference. Right. And again, that kind of relentless focus on energy and body language. You talked about how they are so important to create culture and the right environment.
You have to have guys showing up with the right frame of mind and the right body language. And as part of that answer, Dranson, I did.
Chapter 6: What does the reported trade request from Dylan Larkin mean for the Detroit Red Wings?
I found this interesting and kind of.
I had to chuckle a little bit right but he said you know look every team uses words like compete and accountable and guess what we're going to use those words too but we're going to be specific and we're going to have very very specific definitions tailored to us about what those actually mean and what those what that translates to for our players which I had to laugh like I enjoyed him saying like listen I get it they're buzzwords but we can translate them into things that actually apply and actually make sense for our players
Yeah, that's exactly it, though. Right. Like that is you got to you got to mean what you say. You've got to have substance behind words. You know, everyone in hockey uses process. But what does process mean? Yeah.
What's your process?
Chapter 7: How has the Quinn Hughes trade affected multiple NHL franchises?
Like, what does it actually mean in this environment, in this situation?
Exactly. And people just use it as a watchword for like, don't judge us on the results. Right. But that's not. You know, like, we know what good process looks like. It looks like an accumulation of hundreds of common sense smart bets. You know, for me, it's like...
Using probability and also when I use it, I'm talking about my own evaluative process, like how I judge teams and sort of what I'm looking through data wise to reach conclusions. Right.
Chapter 8: What are the next steps for the Canucks in their AGM search and player development?
And I think it's important that teams have their own version of that. Everyone should have their own version of that in whatever they do. I have a process for evaluating the stocks I pick. You know, like everyone does. You should. Especially if you're as old as dirt as I am. So anyway, yeah, I mean, I thought Malhotra was impressive, which is no surprise. I think he's often extremely impressive.
You know, and he was today. I think that's not... That was not at all – that was not remotely surprising to me that I came away from it just being like, yeah, this guy is wildly, wildly impressive and thoughtful. And, you know, he's a man of substance. Whether he's successful or not, time will tell. But there's no questioning that part.
And beyond the – the ability to communicate and the weight he carries and, you know, the consideration and the thoughtfulness. There's a couple of specific topics. Like I think it's worth touching on that he addressed. And of course, one is the, the, the situation with the Canucks picking three and his son, Caleb being a very highly rated draft prospect.
And, you know, he, he acknowledged as Ryan Johnson did that, that was part of the conversation during the hiring process. He, He also said, look, it's a bit of a fool's errand to go down that road too much to start planning things that haven't even happened. We'll cross that bridge when we get there. You know, I liked his answer about we have a rule in my house, right?
When you're talking to me, yeah, I might be a professional hockey coach, but I'm also your dad, so you kind of get to choose. Do you want to talk to dad or do you want to talk to coach when we're having those conversations? And, you know, he certainly was open to it, but I also – he didn't want to necessarily go into detail on his thoughts on exactly how it would work.
It's the first time he's talked about it.
Yeah.
You know, like he's declined all interviews to discuss it in every respect, right? I'm talking like he hasn't done the features. He hasn't done the sit down features, the draft features, the Scott Wheeler, the athletic, you know, human interest feature, like none of it. I think that tells you something.
Yeah.
