@Sportsnet650@SatiarShah@BikNizzar A consideration I would have is that if Caleb has the intangible cultural & leadership qualities you want, will the perceived bias of Manny & Caleb impact or undercut the locker room culture & leadership impact of Caleb to other players?
3) Dallas, Vegas, etc any teams with expensive free agents they need to resign & could move cap space out
4) Playoff teams looking for a goalie upgrade if Demko returns to form: Buffalo, Avalanche, etc
Canucks offseason potential trading partners:
1) Oilers: picks for taking Nurse contract, if Demko returns to form see what Oilers will pay
2) New Jersey: picks for Hamilton’s contract, see if a package with Nemec + picks for Hronek works.

@mattsekeres What’s the optimal time to clean house so that the new POHO has the time to build out the new management team, GM, AGM’s, scouts, coach etc? I assume it’s best to have new regime conduct this year’s draft.
@DailyHiveVan Another piece of collateral damage of the Tocchet regime. Clean house top to bottom. This management team should not lead the rebuild, they have poor talent evaluation and asset management record
