Nonis was heavily involved in the core that the Canucks had that went to the 2011 finals and back to back presidents trophies.

Sedins, Kesler, Burrows, Luongo, Bieksa were all pieces on Nonis' resume.

The Luongo trade especially was a fine piece of business.

Heavily rumored to have turned down a massive Brad Richards trade that would have crippled the franchise(Kesler and multiple picks). Lost his job because of it.


Nonis gets a bad rap.

He's not my choice for the role but the pitchforks out for him as any kind of serious contender is unfair in my eyes. We have no idea what was said in his interview. He might have impressed.
