When the Canucks finally clean house the new GM will have to speak Cantonese, Mandarin and Punjabi. FFS, just hire the most qualified party and take a French Immersion Course.

this is insulting, I'll stop here before going too far.

Insulting how ? Making a comparison to languages spoken in Vancouver to the situation here ? The Game is Hockey, take the most qualified and work the rest out. All this drama.

No, because you can't make everybody happy, I've lived in Van. It's a Sport JFC.

I would bet a lot of this drama is driven by the French Media outlets in Montreal ... they need their French quotes in order to sell whatever they're selling.

To me, an average fan, I just want to be entertained and it obviously feels good to see the Habs doing good (I've seen them win 8 or 9 cups in my lifetime).

Put a winning team on the ice ... as for the rest, I couldn't care less.

I still don't understand your point with the GM in Vancouver having to speak mandarin but I doubt it's going to go anywhere constructive, so it's all good. kinda tired of this topic anyway and people being appalled all the (frank)ing time because the habs choose to hire a francophone candidate.

It's sarcasm. They are the 3 other major languages spoken in Van so I was making light of that fact vis a vis the situation being discussed on this thread. It's a moot point. Jeff "Flash" Gorton does not read HB so hire the most qualified Hockey mind and turn this Ship around.

it's a really poor comparison but I think I get where you were going with this.

anyway it's gonna be interesting to see if any information leaks out during the process as to who they're interviewing, I'm very curious to know who's on their list.

It's only a comparison because the Nucks are talking about replacing their GM.

really..? wow, that's kinda sad, when you consider a firing to be more significant than winning a series and going to the stanley cup final... oh well.
