Kinda weird to bring in a permanent HC (I can’t see BB coming in as an interim) but an interim GM.

They would just re-morph back into one and they wouldn't know.

Sounds like they might just have given Boudreau a 1.5 year deal rather than the standard 3 year deal most coaching hires get. This is probably Boudreau's swan song. His health wasn't the greatest last year and given his age, I think he is just there to sort things out for them and isn't in the long term plans.

Good thing probably since this gig is not going to be kind to his health either.

Still, usually you’d give a new GM a chance to pick a coach, or at least hire them at the same time so they know what they’re getting. Now the Interim GM has less power than Boudreau.

Reading up on this Chris Gear fella... he played CIS football at Queens, got a law degree, worked at Blakes for six years, and eventually joined the Canucks in 2010 doing legal work. Was promoted to AGM in 2020.

I believe he was formerly a Vancouver Sportsnet guy that got fired when they cut their staff. Definitely have heard his name over the years.

Another stunning success to add to the resume for John Weisbrod, the smartest man in hockey.
