For real though Chris MacFarland is probably the best candidate. He is Avs AGM and has been credited with helping with the quick turnaround from bottom to the top of the league, on top of filling up the prospect cupboards in Colorado. He values cap as a key asset. He's been the behind the scenes guy in Colorado and Sakic's right hand man.
I would want an experienced president though like Lombardi, Rutherford, Tallon, etc.
