Canucks Brunch: Put Your Best Foote Forward
Manage episode 482801453 series 3002127
On this episode of Canucks Brunch, Josh and Lina are joined by NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman to react to the Canucks' decision to name Adam Foote head coach—an expected move, but one that came sooner than anticipated. They dig into what Foote’s promotion means for the team, including his shift from assistant to head coach and how it may impact player development, especially for prospects like Tom Willander. With Willander now signed, the Canucks’ surplus on defense opens the door for trades, possibly involving Hronek or the 15th overall pick to upgrade their top-six forward group. The offseason checklist is far from over as Vancouver looks to make bold moves in free agency and the draft. They also touch on Rick Tocchet’s new role in Philadelphia, Ken Holland’s hiring in L.A., and why Elias Pettersson’s performance next season remains the key to the team’s future.
