HKSR Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Seriously though, first Linden, now Courtnall, and now Sedins... https://www.tsn.ca/vancouver-canucks-in-talks-with-sedin-twins-regarding-potential-roles-with-organization-1.1641910 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakrami Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Could be good for this organization. Sedins are decent people and could potentially do great work managing. They certainly have the EQ for it. I dont think Benning will be around if we are hiring the Twins for an organizational role. Could be change is coming. Benning's done some decent things for this organization, I dont mind watching him 1 more year to see if he can achieve the results needed; providing we have a coach change. New management that has a proven track record will be great too. I am tired to see newhorn hires and fingers cross that they work.

DSVII Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) Let's see what roles they get first. I mean if it's for a player development role. Awesome, have at it, very qualified individuals but isn't really super influential like a mgmt role. I don't know if Aquilini wants another repeat of the Linden fiasco.

wallstreetamigo Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Not sure what role they would have but they dont really have the experience - or the temperament - to be GM, President, etc. Nor should their legacy get tarnished by this $&!# show. Let them be revered franchise icons, not lightning rods to deflect criticism ftom Aquilini. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted May 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2021 You know what? They are still athletes in excellent health. They're a bit skinny from all that running but give them a few months in the weight room and they'll be ready. PUT THEM ON THE ICE 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 48MPHSlapShot Posted May 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 18, 2021 I'm starting to get flashbacks to the Oilers old boys club from a few years ago. That worked out well for them, right? 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EP Phone Home Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 If ownership doesn’t get involved with their work much like he did with Lindens then I don’t have a problem with it. However that said. I really don’t want the twins to be resentful and close off the organization much like Linden did. Can’t keep tarnishing Canuck legends reputation. Please be kind Mr. Aquilini 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Player development role would be perfect. They would be able to pass on some knowledge on puck possession and puck management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baratheon Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I thought I remembered hearing that the twins would be offered roles when they retired. However they wanted to do their own thing for a while. Maybe I'm just making that up in my mind though idk lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herberts Vasiljevs Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) I'd love to see Larionov as the new GM and/or president of hockey ops. Maybe the Sedins as special advisors? Edited May 18, 2021 by Herberts Vasiljevs 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM_ Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I could see something like Senior Advisors along the lines of Smyl's role but maybe more in terms of overall team strategy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
