The Vancouver Canucks GM position continues to be desirable despite some chaos, because it allows someone to place their stamp on a team, and it’s going to include some longevity
Every day Faceoff: David Pagnotta, on the Vancouver Canucks GM search. It’s a desirable job for somebody, because it allows someone to place their stamp on a franchise, and you could have a little bit of cushion/longevity, because it does take years to rebuild.
Pagnotta: “Jamie Langenbrunner is a man that has spoken with Nashville. He spoke with the Devils before they made their decision. He’s an AGM in, in Boston. He looks to be on the trajectory to be a GM in some unspecified time in the future down the road. So I’m interested in him, in the event that they go in that direction.
We all know Ryan Bowness is one other one on Long Island. Is AGM with the Islanders. He’s on their radar, too. We’re probably going to start out to listen to more names, or not start, because we’re here, but we’re going to proceed to listen to more names Irf, with respect to potential candidates.
Since you’re right, it is a very desirable job. Especially while you’re coping with a rebuild, because there’s a few things. One, obviously, you place your stamp on it, and you could possibly have a extremely big say with how this team goes to be going moving forward.

The opposite thing is longevity. You’ve got a runway here. Once you’re rebuilding, there’s a pathway. Like, this isn’t a we’re rebuilding, and if we don’t see serious progress in two years, you’re out of here. Like there’s, you’ve got cushion, since you’re going through this rebuild.”
Irfaan Gaffar: “The longer it goes for the Vancouver Canucks, I feel the less and fewer likely it becomes that Ryan Johnson is known as the GM of this team. I feel that he’s a man that is correct under your nose. A man that you understand. A man that you could possibly turn the keys of the franchise over to straight away. You have got a alternative to do this when you want, and it’s a really, very easy alternative.
You already know, you don’t should do any interviews. You have got your guy right there when you want. I just think, the longer this goes, the less likely it’s that Ryan Johnson is the GM of this team. Will remain as Assistant General Manager, obviously, because he’s under contract, but we’ll see what happens again. Like, I said, I just think that they’re going to go along with experience.”
