200.606 - 203.108 Jason Brough

Hey, did you guys see the game last night? No. Why?

0

208.37 - 237.82 Mike Halford

what happened is brought to you by the bc construction safety alliance making safety simpler by giving construction companies the best in tools resources and safety training visit them online at bccsa.ca we will begin with vancouver canucks and maybe just maybe we're getting closer to the finish line with this search for a new general manager because the name evan gold seems to be gaining some serious momentum this week jason

0

237.8 - 255.94 Unknown

Yeah, that was the latest buzz around the team, and we're going to play some audio from 32 Thoughts. Elliot Freeman talking more about Evan Gold. He's currently in the Bruins' front office. Evan Gold, not Elliot Freeman. That's right. The Canucks could be going back to the well in Boston for another general manager.

0

256.161 - 285.958 Unknown

I'll wager that Evan Gold has a pretty different style, though, compared to Jim Benning. He is... He has... He's a lawyer. Mm-hmm. He got his law degree, also his MBA from the U of T in Toronto. I think he did his undergrad at McGill. Started out with the Washington Capitals, found his way to the Boston organization. He's done everything, according to the Bruins website.

286.639 - 321.283 Unknown

Day-to-day hockey ops, salary cap analysis, contract negotiations, roster planning, player salary arb, CBA compliance, and... pro scouting he is also the general manager of the Bruins AHL team in Providence now Ryan Johnson is the general manager of the Canucks AHL team in Abbotsford right and we all know that Ryan Johnson has been a candidate but for some reason not a slam dunk in Vancouver now

323.035 - 348.402 Unknown

I obviously have not been part of the interviews. I don't know the day-to-day operations of the Vancouver Canucks, so I can't speak to Ryan Johnson's abilities. Everyone seems to think he's a very good guy and a good hockey guy, but I'm happy that the Canucks went out and interviewed all these people.

348.382 - 371.841 Unknown

And even if Ryan Johnson went into this as the frontrunner or the recommendation initially of the departing Jim Rutherford, it was always going to be possible that someone was going to come in, interview very well, and impress the Canucks to the point where they would get him the job. Now, he doesn't have the job yet, right? We've kind of gone down this...

373.171 - 388.09 Unknown

We've gone down this road before where we're like, oh, it sounds like this guy's going to get the job. And then he doesn't. Now, maybe the Pierre Dorian thing was a little bit different because it was like, I think he's going to get the job, said Greg Wyshynski on our station in the morning.
