Freakshow
ParticipantMichael Russo @RussoHockey
Hearing director of amateur scouting Judd Brackett is leaving the #mnwild for an elevated position for another team. Brackett ran the Wild’s last 5 drafts and is on an expiring contract.

ParticipantThings have kind of gone quiet in Canuckland but with just over three weeks until the draft I expect things to start heating up again. I’d like to see Filip Hronek traded to San Jose for the 20th pick, they’re looking for defence. I think it’s the Oilers pick, that way the team would have four picks in the top 33. They could get a nice start on a rebuild with that!!

ParticipantA new beginning that looks something like this…
“After an exhaustive search through the available hockey people for the Presidents job we found that our player development coaches were the best fit to lead the club and President of Hockey Operations”.
Followed by…
“After an exhaustive search through the available hockey people we found that the GM of our farm team was the best fit for the General Manager position for the Canucks”
Followed by…
“After an exhaustive search through the available NHL coaches, we found that the coach of our farm team was the best fit”.
Followed by…
After an exhaustive search to fill the players development coach position, we found that former Canuck and Swede, Alex Edler was the best fit”.
Followed by…
“After exhaustive scouting of the draft eligible players in the 2026 NHL entry draft, we found that our coaches kid is the best player to pick at #3 OA”.
Sure feels like a new beginning and direction….

ParticipantI totally missed my calling as a comedic writer. Probably the best part of the old hockeybuzz group was their collective sense of humour. Hopefully we can keep it going over here before Lordy migrates and ruins it for everyone.
Just kidding Lordy.

ParticipantHey guys good to see some action here again.
So…remember the good old days on HB when we used to have the bestest conversations about the Canucks, gosh I kinda miss those days. Despite some serious flaws with this format let’s get some conversations going again about the Canucks, a lot is happening on the “left coast” right now. Cheers!!
HB was a great site for different conversations and also equally different types of characters, but unfortunately the owner of that site was short sighted and full of himself..kinda like that lefty guy at HB..just joking buddy.
Good to see some of the old boys back posting.May 28, 2026 at 9:03 am #73601Freakshow

ParticipantLatest rumour is 3 HC on the list Malhotra of course, Knoblaugh & Cassidy. The latter VGK isn’t letting anyone interview. All 3 have good reasons to be hired Malhotra the sentimental choice but a rookie, Knoblaugh who can get offence out of his roster & Cassidy who’s systems get a good team game identity going. Idk which style best suits the Canucks at these early stages of a rebuild or which HC candidate wants a rebuild situation. On that my guess is Malhotra more interested with maybe Knoblaugh next. Idk Cassidy’s mind set after the Bruins then VGK jobs would be interested might want another PO type team to be HC.
If all 3 are interested do you have a favourite?
