The Open: Adam Foote Takes Over Behind the Canucks Bench

Dan Riccio and Satiar Shah react to the Canucks naming Adam Foote the 22nd head coach in franchise history. They evaluate his promotion over candidates like Marco Sturm and Manny Malhotra, his impact on Quinn Hughes, and the challenge of stepping into a lead role. Plus, they discuss how much of next season’s success will hinge on roster upgrades, not just coaching—and whether Tom Willander could help Abbotsford in the Calder Cup Playoffs after signing his ELC.
