Jaku Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Judd Brackett is one of the most underrated Canucks staff members. The guy really knows what he's doing and no one talks about him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to enjoy and maximize his skills as much as we can while it lasts.. Edited June 25, 2019 by timberz21 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s one of those jobs where they’re keeping him around in an advisory capacity because they like him, and also probably because he’s already getting paid guaranteed money on his contract, but Ian Clark is “the guy” when it comes to our goalies. The title of “Director of Goaltending” sounds like Cloutier’s higher up the ladder, but I doubt Clark is his subordinate. Apparently Cloutier took a step back in his duties, for “family reasons” (citing the travel demands as too much), and was given this new title for whatever work he continues to do with the organization.

I think his inputs are still valued, as evidenced by Brackett referencing Clark AND Cloutier. For all the hate Cloutier gets for his playoff performances, it is truly undeserved when it comes to his time as an advisor of goaltending. People are so toxic. For a time, Demko in particular liked Cloutier, especially when they were working together. That was before Ian Clark came in. It's possible that the Canucks never thought Cloutier was 'the guy' but the fact that Ian Clark was able to come back, it was a no-brainer to snag him.

There was a guy that lived near where he played and got Delmore to come and see him...I’m sorry I can’t remember his name right now but he was adamant that he come and wouldn’t leave them alone until he did. He’s an old scout for the franchise I’d have to look through some old mags to find his name. Delmore got the credit for it, and if course he deserves a lot of it, but without this other guy this would have never happened and we’d have Glass.

Benning credits Delorme for his find. I think a lot of people, including myself, have been wrong about Delorme. I've summed it up before with Delorme, wrong guy for the wrong role. He was maybe in over his head as director of scouting. Not communicating properly with the rest of his scouts. The overall organization of their scouting program was confusing. When Benning came in he kept quite a few of the old staff including Delorme. Organized things better, brought in Brackett as director and completely overhauled our scouting system. Now we see a system where communication has become the main focal point. They are all on the same page. It's so nice to see. And now Delorme is back into a more comfortable role as a scout and he's rebounded. I feel bad because I hacked on the guy hard back on the day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I didn’t mean to sound critical of Clouts. I think he did good work here in his capacity as a goalie coach, and is probably still a valuable part of the team staff. I think the Clark hiring just happened to coincide with Cloutier wanting to scale back his coaching duties, so he can spend more time with his family. A happy coincidence. The new position as “Director of Goaltending” makes way for Clarky to come in as “Goalie Coach” and do what he does best, and still allows Cloutier space to have a role in the organization. So far, at least from the outside, it appears to be working well for everyone. I doubt either one of Clark or Cloutier really cares too much about their actual titles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
