After firing Willie Desjardins, the Vancouver Canucks need to find themselves a new head coach.
There are a few other recently-fired coaches on the market who look like attractive candidates. Two of those — Gerard Gallant and Ken Hitchcock — have already been hired. But others, such as Darryl Sutter and Lindy Ruff, are still available. There are also a trio of former Edmonton Oilers coaches to consider, in Ralph Krueger, Dallas Eakins and Todd Nelson.
Trevor Linden stated that the team will try to have their new coach in place by the Entry Draft, which begins June 23.
