The Canucks owner made a declaration on Tuesday that seemed to serve little purpose.
The Canucks’ owner wants it clear: despite a year of rumours, he’s never spoken to Dean Lombardi about a job running his team — or anything at all.
It emerged shortly thereafter that Lombardi’s contract with the Philadelphia Flyers, signed in 2017 to be some sort of floating contributor in the executive suite, had no out clauses, meaning the Canucks would have to ask for formal permission to speak with the former GM of the Sharks and Kings. — matthew sekeres march 26, 2019earlier this month, the athletic’s jason botchford re-iterated that aquilini had made multiple offers to lombardi.add it all up, and it seems the boss just wanted to make on thing clear: he hadn’t spoken with lombardi.
as sportsnet 650’s satiar shah first reported, the canucks are indeed looking at finding someone to look at the whole operation over a period of time and then make decisions on how to organize the front office.
