All I used to be told about that was, it\u2019s premature. And I\u2019m not going to knock anybody else\u2019s reporting. People hear things on a regular basis, but I used to be specifically told to not say that as any form of done deal. It\u2019s premature.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_97182\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-97182\" style=\"width: 361px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-97182\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Image from NHL Network video<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A Trade That Would Help the Oilers, and the Avs Will Have Cap Issues<\/p>\n<p>So the last I heard, it was all the way down to two: Evan Gold and Ryan Johnson, who&#8217;s currently there, and I imagine that there had been conversations with each of them about potentially taking the job. But at this cut-off date, I used to be just told the reports about Evan Gold being the guy are premature. (inaudible). I would like to not be flawed again, so I\u2019m just going to stick to that.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-swedish-system-of-nhl-leadership\"><strong>The Swedish system of NHL leadership<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NHLMedia\/status\/2053948365159760011\">NHL Media<\/a><\/strong>: Elliotte Friedman yesterday on Henrik and Daniel Sedin taking over an even bigger role with the Vancouver Canucks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I do imagine the Sedin\u2019s are taking an even bigger role there. The most effective comparable that was given to me guys is it\u2019s probably going to find yourself similar as Toronto has ended up with John Chayka because the GM and Mats Sundin as a, as a vice chairman of an advisor, or an advisor.<\/p>\n<p>Like, Chayka ultimately has the decision-making power, but Sundin\u2019s opinion will matter 100% and I feel it\u2019s going to find yourself being something like that. I feel, I feel this, I just like the Sedins taking over an even bigger role. They care loads concerning the Canucks. I feel it\u2019s an important move.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Vancouver Canucks GM Search Slowly Coming to an End<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>However it\u2019s going to be just like Toronto\u2019s setup, and since there\u2019s Swedes involved in either side. I\u2019m calling it the brand new Swedish system of NHL leadership. A franchise legend in an advisory role from Sweden and a general manager.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>We needed to restart our X account.
