Really depends what's true. Was it her not taking Aquilini's #### and she got turfed?
Was it that she leaked info to the media in regards to team injuries?
Was it simply that her work wasn't up to snuff?
Those are the three big rumours out there. They're all plausible. Two of them do not make the team look bad. One should lead to a change in ownership.

Some nervousness in Vancouver after surrending two leads in their first 2 games and Demko allowing 7 goals against in his first two. The radio guys also mentioned that the players are wearing shirts that say "Unfinished Business"...

It's possible that a lawyer will make a public statement, but it's probably more likely that they won't. Hiring a lawyer after a termination doesn't mean they're going to hold a press conference, it may just be a negotiation about a settlement attached to an employment contract or something.

Kind of weird to be wearing "Unfinished Business" shirts as the Canucks haven't made the playoffs for a few seasons now. What have they started that's unfinished? Is getting a Wild Card playoff spot their unfinished business? Seems like a low bar. I get that they have to try anything but something weird about how the Canucks have been going about things. I can't put my finger on it but they seem like an oddball organization even with new managment.

Yeah it's confusing but the only thing I can think of is they believe they should be a playoff team based on their performance once Bruce There It Is became their coach?

Their “unfinished business” might be to get Bedard in the draft. He is a massive Canucks fan.

There's no chance they'll finish low enough to draft Bedard. That would be a silly goal to have as they won't be able to match how terrible some teams will be this season.

You’re probably right. But before their coaching change… they were right there with the worst of the league last year.

It's why I was opposed to tank hard for Bedard when people were suggesting that here. It's hard to overstate how bad the frontrunners for Bedard are going to be.

A lot of talk that Bedard may try and Lindros himself to the Canucks.
It's mostly just me, saying it to myself, but there is a lot of it.

Even Lindros didn't "Lindros" himself TO a team. He simply refused to play for the organization that held the first overall pick.
He could Tkachuk himself to Vancouver in a few years, I guess.
