So they're the GMs or...? Presidents? Does that mean Johnson is the GM?

We were headed towards something more professional dammit.

That sounds interesting, dbr.

I guess I assumed from reports that a Gold signing would involve him bringing in Langebrunner to be his assistant here too.

Btw, I'm all for the Sedins to take a bigger role in the organization. I'm sure they don't want be development coaches in Abby forever.

Lol, maybe I should just prepare to riot and wait to see what actually transpires.

When in doubt, hire Sybil.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Well, when your profile pic is you holding a banana to your ear and pretending it’s a phone so you can look important, I would always question that source.

He's one of the cringiest media guys in Vancouver, and that's saying something.

Gaffar is saying that RJ has been offered a job as "head of hockey ops" - whatever that means in whatever front office constellation the owners concoct moving forward. Rumors are rumors and leaks are always sus to some extent, but this seems quite a chaotic build-up to whatever announcement gets made before the draft - sadly, par for the course with this crew.

Interesting, lots of rumours/speculation out there - leads me to believe that the current POHO is no longer involved in the situation because Rutherford can't keep anything from leaking it seems. If he was in charge, we would already know the chosen candidate, his salary, shoe size and preferred ice cream flavour. He can't keep anything secret.

Seriously though, I'd be pretty happy with RJ as POHO, Gold as GM, Lagunbrunner as AGM along with Rogowski. Hank and Dank as directors of player development.

Where did Langenbrunner’s name come from? I’ll admit I’m out of touch on this.
Somewhere in NW BC trying (yet again) to trade a(nother) Swede…..

He's an AGM with Boston and I guess complement's Gold's skill set well. I'm not going to be posting any beat reporters social media posts here again, but different threads of gossip out there today have the Canucks hiring Evan Gold who will be bringing a bunch of Bruins front office with him (Langenbrunner and some analytics guy) or Ryan Johnson in and Gold out.

It's interesting that he was "offered" the position - and that they couldn't come to an agreement and announce his hiring in the new role. It will be awkward if he turns it down, though.

Just seems like more unnecessary drama from this clown show outfit (not to insult clowns, btw)
