Good for her that she got Roussel @ 4 years 12 mil but Canucks have now hired the person in charge of contracts negotiation someone who signed Roussel to 4 years 12 mil.

Her job as an agent was to get the most for her client.
Her job as a AGM is to get the most out of the player.
She will be negotiating on the other side this time around. I don't think it coerilates

Did they look for a person to fill this position or did they look for a woman to fill this position?

Who were the front runners? We hear Botteril was already offered the job before Castonguay was hired. Who else was a top consideration?

It's already been well documented that allvin, mellanby and Burke were all people who interviewed for the job. Botterill was just one of the women mentioned who interviewed.

At one time, they had a list of 40 or so people they were interviewing for positions

The job? I think you are blending AGM and GM into one position. It's well documented that Alvin, Mellanby and Burke have been interviewed for the GM job and that Botterill turned down the AGM job for personal reasons.

We know all that but still she thought Roussel was a 12 mil player and that is a fact. She is now handling contract negotiations.

The last player agent Canucks hired at a top position destroyed the team for years and years later.

As a fan for the last few years I have heard over and over in here hire someone with experience no more first timers. Today we hired another first timer.

Like I said I know nothing about her but I do go along with Booner that Canucks were looking to hire a female. Now we wait and see the results.

We are not complaining we are just saying how it appears.

Ok so she was a agent. That much I already know. An agent for Alexis Lafreniere is neither here nor there... 25 most powerful woman in hockey... she's being compared to only woman in that statement.

Anything else?

Let's be fair, the most recent fired GM has destroyed the team for years and years, as well.

I dont think any person gets handed a job without fitting requirements or having credentials/experience to do the job, especially a job of that stature. I understand the question given how prevalent the media has been in regards to hiring females, but I don't think it really has anything to do with it. It's a multi million dollar franchise run by an egotistical owner who is hellbent on making money. I doubt he signs off on a 6 digit or more salary just to appease the fanbase on gender equality.

So are you telling me when she signed that contract she really did not believe her client was worth 12 mil dollars ?

Well, people are making claims on here about a great hiring... so it's only fair to ask why and what from these same people. This is a discussion forum. Asking people to elaborate their comments is far from unreasonable. Take it easy.

She believed she could get a nieve GM to give her client more money than he deserves, which also puts more money in her pocket lol

People are making claims of it being a great hire based off her credentials, not what's between her legs. Everyone on here has said that she has great experience and listed her accolades and accomplishments though.

Was she supposed to say, no Jim, 3million for 4 years is to much, how about 1.5 for 2 years.

It was mentioned sometime ago that the Canucks would be adding women to the management group, this is not a new revelation.

An extremely hard thing to learn and demonstrate. People don't understand how hard negotiating truly is in the corporate world.
