The Vancouver Canucks talking to Pierre Dorion makes some sense, and some others who interviewed face-to-face
Sportsnet: Elliotte Friedman, on 32 Thoughts: The Podcast on The Second Round is Here episode, on the Vancouver Canucks GM search. Pierre Dorion is the newest candidate to come up. Friedman names some of the people who have been interviewed lately.
Kyle Bukauskas: “How about in Vancouver, former Ottawa Senators General Manager Pierre Dorian, now surfacing as one of the names added to the list, who was interviewed for their vacant spot.”
Friedman: “I’m actually when I heard it, I actually, I actually wasn’t surprised. It actually fits the criteria, because Dorian went through a lot of things in Ottawa that are pretty similar to Vancouver, I think.

A lot of ownership issues that are similar to Ottawa. Ownership challenges, ups, downs, wild swings, times where you expect to contend and don’t. Times that you have to kind of rebuild. So I’m actually not surprised he ended up on their list.
I believe they’ve interviewed Dorian face-to-face. I believe they’ve interviewed Evan Gold face-to-face. I believe they’ve interviewed Ryan Bowness face-to-face.
The Ryan Johnson thing, it’s hard to understand exactly where that is. I don’t think he’s out, Kyle, but because he’s there, it’s hard to say, ‘Okay, how many times have you been interviewed? What are these interviews? Like, because he’s there, it’s harder to get a grasp on what kinds of interviews he’s done, but I still think he’s in it. I think there’s more, but I don’t know yet.
