Vancouver Canucks: Mike Gillis is ready to change the NHL

On Friday, former Vancouver Canucks general manager Mike Gillis was at Ryerson University in Toronto to speak at the TeamSnap Hockey Coaches Conference.

There were a Q&A and interview session, where Gillis shared his thoughts and opinions about his time in Vancouver, and how to change the front offices of the NHL.

Gillis’ plans for an NHL return

Gillis does indeed want to return to the NHL. However, he doesn’t want to be a general manager.

“I don’t think my role any longer is to be the GM of an NHL team,” Gillis said, via Sportsnet’s Luke Fox.
