No, no, no to AV. Our youngsters' development will suffer while he goes with the vets and the 'character' players he trusts. See Tanner Glass and Andrew Alberts, I could see Troy Brouwer being one of his faves.
One of the reasons why he is rumoured to become available this off-season is because the Rangers have declared themselves a rebuilding team and he isn't one known for giving young kids many opportunities.
Couldn't improve the powerplay when the oft-injured Sami Salo was out, and went 1-10 in playoff games after the Canucks 2010 final run. Can't control the room, when the Canucks went on extended losing streaks (which I enjoyed), it was basically up to whether or not the Sedins wanted to score or not; and very little AV did to tweak the lines or adjust the playing style would help.
