The current Canucks team could look a lot different if Jim Benning had his way at the 2017 draft👀 Former Canuck Captain and President, Trevor Linden, joined #Canucks Central with @danriccio_ and @SatiarShah to talk about that and much more.

@canucks Scout, Patrik Jonsson was such a genuine human. The first game I saw with him was a Swedish Jr. hockey game. He pointed out a very small but tenacious kid. "Batesy, he will be a high draft pick in a few years." That player went 4th overall to Detroit.

I agree with Gearsy that there’s no ideal front-office size. I would also add that doors need to be open, not shut, if you want to create a winning environment amongst your team and staff.

"I think there was definitely a narrative in Vancouver that our team was too small, but I'm not sure that was the case. Jim at one point asked me to look into it." - Former #Canucks AGM Chris Gear ( @vangearman ) on Jim Benning's front office. S&P ➡️
