Shame on them for finding someone with an immense amount of experience to run this ship and mentor our future GM. We were much better off the last handful of years flying by the seat of our pants with no president. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BlakeQuinnAndEggs Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 The fact that veteran hockey people like Boudreau and Rutherford are jumping at opportunities to work in Vancouver says something. Good times ahead i think. 1 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll definitely find ways to bolster our team depending on how long he’s interim GM but either way, he has a core to work with. This team realistically is missing a couple of pieces. A top flight right handed defenseman, a right handed centerman, and some overall team toughness. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Cup win as a GM, you can attribute that as a fluke. TWO, for DIFFERENT teams, it defies logical reasoning to call both a fluke imho.

If he was hired as both id be freaking out too. I just don’t wanna see a trade till we have a GM that’s all.

Alflives Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 17 minutes ago, Patel Bure said: I’m fine with Jim Rutherford being President but am not entirely keen on him being a GM. I’ll have to look up his history a bit more but my initial gut feeling is that he made a number of questionable moves as a GM in Pittsburgh. three cups in Pittsburgh. He knows what the top guys on a team have to be to win. He will know if we have those guys in Petey, Hughes, Bess, etc. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 1 minute ago, aGENT said: Agreed. Excited to see who they find to work under him. These are all significant changes. 1 minute ago, aGENT said: Who you think it's going to be Phil? My money is on one of Miller or Boeser....long shot, Horvat. I'd prefer none of the above, but if I had to guess, it would be Miller. 1 minute ago, aGENT said: Though I think that comes later, deadline or summer. Something like Miller, Rathbone and Poolman packaged for a #2 RD and a 3C would be a-ok in my books. Downgrade the F, upgrade the D. Was hoping NYI's would be better this year and they'd be all in enough to maybe shake lose Dobson and Czikas in that scenario. But alas... Right now, I'd just be happy if they find us a defensive 3LD with some size and snarl. Someone like McNabb. He is expiring...but VGK probably makes playoffs at this rate and they keep him for a run. (Perhaps take a run at him this summer?) I think Ekblad or Parayko are the targets. If you're offering Miller, Boner, and Pooler , that's the type of player you could get back. I would like to see if they can pry Manson free of Anaheim's mousy clutches. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might only be interim for a few weeks. Doubt he even makes one trade. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Thornycroft Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 At least we're getting an experienced guy with 3 Cup rings to get the team in order and bring guys along. My guess is that it's Steamer or the Sedins who are going to ultimately be the GM, with Rutherford as the mentor for those 3 guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyman109 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 While i would have preferred Lombardi I am still hopeful we can land Mc Farland in the GM role. we need some new blood in the system. Boudreau is an excellent coach. Rutherford is just an Ok POHO We really need the GM to be a winner. Having experience in the roles is vital to winning a championship. We have it in spades so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
