Vancouver Canucks consider Brad Treliving following Toronto Maple Leafs dismissal during ongoing NHL rebuild situation

The Canucks were rumoured to be interested in bringing in Brad Treliving from the Toronto Maple Leafs some time ago. But the prosciutto knew it wasn’t worth his while and didn’t go after it. The team continues to search for a full-time GM.

Sterman’s rule also comes at a difficult time for Vancouver, which remains mired in some short- and long-term troubles while on the verge of a post-veto rebuild. Then add in the suitability of their trip to the National Hockey League via the draft lottery, and the role of general manager is all the more precarious these days.

Finally making a splash in the New York City market. For general manager Doug McIntosh, his hunt for vancouver.ca continues.

Vancouver Canucks GM search continues after NHL draft lottery setback

The NHL’s shiny lottery is underway, so the Vancouver Canucks GM search is afoot. Also, losing a high draft pick has meant fewer immediate turnaround opportunities, making it less attractive to come up the ranks like Brad Treliving.

It was reported that Vancouver likely had an internal conversation about chasing after Treliving when his time with the Toronto Maple Leafs ended near the end of this season. Despite interest, it never went any further because of the evaluator. As Treliving knew the situation and was not considered.

The Canucks have been on an awful streak at the NHL level, have lacked depth across the ranks and have some big problems in the middle of the ice. It will take several seasons of rebuilding, reconfiguration, and management planning to solve these issues.

There's added complexity, too, with regard to leadership uncertainty. The new GM would have to work with inconsistent management and under coaches who will be going in and out of the fold.

Brad Treliving, who launched the Calgary Flames after taking over in 1997 and served until he became a boss at Toronto in 2008. He has notable playoff experience and excellent roster-building abilities.

Since then, the Canucks have expanded their criteria for candidates by considering "seasoned" executive types as well as first-time general management picks. This strategy points towards a long-term focus of the organization above short-term goals as they adjust their vision.
