Taylor: If he wants to move it along quickly because of his age, that's wrong!
Dhaliwal: Jim has won Stanley Cups, he's one of the best executives of all-time.
Taylor: I could open a gate for Sidney Crosby and Malkin too 🔥🔥🤣🤣

Elliotte didn't say this but after listening it's clear it's a matter when not if with a Hughes trade.
Canucks are currently talking about a Hughes trade with multiple teams (including Wings and Devils)

Canucks GM Patrik Allvin tells me neither Conor Garland nor Quinn Hughes are travelling with the team. Canucks flying to St. Louis today.
Allvin still hopeful Hughes can join the team in either Minnesota or Nashville.

Dhaliwal: "Canucks number 1 priority on July 1st wasn't Brock Boeser, it was Dvorak. They got into a bidding war with Philly for Dvorak...Don't kid yourself Canucks number 1 option wasn't Boeser. They went to Boeser once they lost Dvorak"

Elliotte was asked about the Evander Kane situation over the weekend where he was allegedly attacked/punched at Pierre's.
He said he doesn't want to comment on it right now and guess about what happened. Wants to hear all the details first.

Seravalli: There is an ongoing battle behind the scenes right now between the Aquilini family. It's not over control of the team because Francesco is going to maintain that...They have to buyout Paolo. It has been ongoing. Probably wont get settled until the start of the season.

Hiring Adam Foote will down as one of the worst coaching hires in franchise history.
That doesn't necessarily mean next season will be a disaster. Even Willie D made the playoffs in his first season.
But long-term this is going to be horrible.

Elliotte believes Canucks have interviewed Mitch Love but it was more informal and probably want to meet in person with him when he's available.
He believes Canucks may have interviewed Todd Reirden as well.

Foote would go down as the worst coach in franchise history.
Echoing and extending on what Dhali and Drancer have put together: sounds like Canucks' head coaching job is coming down to Adam Foote or Manny Malhtora, with Malhotra the slight favourite.
