“I want to talk about Rick Tocchet quickly because I think something is happening behind the scenes right now. I heard that Canucks gave Rick Tocchet a very promising offer.
And you know, if you hear Rick Dhaliwal, he would say, Canucks know the price? The Canucks know the price of signing Rick Tocchet or completing the deal. Now, I don’t know if they’ve reached this price, but I think they gave him a very generous offer in their eyes. And I think they might want to wrap it up in the next few days, so at the end of the season they can sign, seal and deliver Rick Tocchet there. Then go on with all the other things they have to fix.

Now, if they don’t have autographs at the end of the season, it’s a big deal every Friday, Saturday, whenever. This will be difficult for this management team that already has something to deal with.
Like Tom Willander, now for the next few days, it might be a post-burner issue now, right? Like, I’m not suggesting that they don’t care about this, but want to do this Rick Tocchet thing. Part of it is because they really like Rick Tocchet and they come out and say, like, we want Rick Tocchet here. If they (if he) decide to say, “Like, yes, I really don’t want it. Like, even if you gave me a good offer, there wasn’t really digging the atmosphere here.
It will look bad at management, terrible and they have to deal with that and then they have to go out and look for another coach. They’ll be like, well, that’s another thing we’re going to add to our list, and what would Quinn Hughes consider?
Because Quinn Hughes and Rick Tocchet are now tied together, because Quinn Hughes goes out of his way to say, “I want Rick Tocchet to come back.”
Mike Brought: “Yes.”
Halford: “If Rick Tocchet says no to the Canucks, he also says no to Quinn Hughes. And, you know, Quinn Hughes is very important to the Vancouver Canucks for the next two years.”

Brought: “Yes.”
Halford: “They have to show him that they have an organization that needs to get the job done. To turn this team into a Stanley Cup contender. If they can’t convince their head coach to stay, what would it say to Quinn Hughes?”
