Carol Schram: Rocky Thompson, Manny Malhotra in the mix for Canucks' new coaching staff The Vancouver Canucks are interested in hiring Windsor Spitfires head coach Rocky Thompson to join their staff, and may increase Manny Malhotra's role after his success in helping the Canucks improve their faceoff record last season.

Well done Carol.

Great details and informing as usual. Thank you Carol

The expansion draft is only 3 weeks away! Someone make a damn trade already!!!!!

I hope with Baumgartner's vacancy on the Comets they send down Biega and groom him as a player coach. He has a will to battle that I would love to be shown to prospects. He is the Bulldog and his fearlessness and heart is something I wish every Canuck had.

Time to reward these types of players.

It's considered bad form for teams to make any announcements during the Stanley Cup finals. You shouldn't expect anyone to make any significant moves until after they've swept up the mess left behind by the parade.

He turns 20 in July. Hmm too bad he can't just be signed for Comets. Nice size. College guy though. So you're thinking 5th round pick?

I did. Yes.

I guess there's just something about malfunctioning code, tacky ads, regurgitated sports news, regular announcements by a certain pathological liar, and the inspired nonsense of the visitor posts that makes this site irresistible.

Most likely a later round pick. Good numbers for a college D man. He pretty much took the same route as Makar. Playing the extra year in a lower league before going to college.

Biega is only 29, I suspect he still wants to play for a few more years

you're always looking at a guys size.

Isn't it pretty disgusting that it was only recently that our team decided to bring in specialists to teach the players certain skills (skills that are extremely important in the NHL)? We had to drop to worst in the league before our management thought about doing that! Think about that for a second... And you wonder why we are currently one of the worst teams in the NHL...

one game....I still don't want him. My opinion. Although, I won't complain if we draft him (we won't).

It's a factor right now that this team is in short supply of in the system. Size with speed and skill should be focus for a draft that is not rated well for high end talent.

Ron Francis of the Hurricanes announced today They are open for business

If he gets passed on in this draft then he can be singed as a free agent in July when he turns 20, right...?

I chose to ignore the troll factor, if that was alluded too, and turn it into adding some hockey talk about the lack of prospects with size in the system.
