The owner is in the midst of an ugly familial dispute, the GM reportedly wants out, they sit near the bottom of the NHL, and they have an ugly path forward charted. Not exactly a fortuitous position.
We can apparently add one more problem onto the list: according to the NHL's #1 Insider Elliotte Friedman, Vancouver is actively investigating a mole in the organization.
The irony here is relatively obvious; Friedman breaks lots of news around the league, including from the Canucks, and he is reporting that his sources are actively being sought out.
It's hard to blame the Canucks.
One could argue they have bigger issues at hand, but loose lips do sink ships. With all the negative press they have received of late, ownership/management needs to get a grip on their organization.
Quite a funny story, though.
