I understand your point, and agree that there’s a lot of Benning hate & Brackett love... but to play the flip side could it not be that Benning thinks he’s doing an excellent job, sees him growing the past 3 years, think he is a fit for a higher job and wants to reward him?
I honestly have no idea how much one person does more than the other in the Canucks management — don’t think anyone here truly does — but Brackett has gotten a lot more face time and media responsibility the past couple of seasons.

I agree with your overall statement, I was interpreting the posts that Brackett needs to be promoted because he is the real drafting genius.
If the internal management committee has identified Brackett as deserving of promotion then absolutely, that's their decision.
For fans to inaccurately state that Brackett is the sole individual responsible for pick acquisitions, and that Benning is an idiot so Brackett should be promoted, is where I was stating my thoughts.
