Well that’s not the best possibility.

The crazy thing is put Gillis in there and I think it could really work out:

POHO: Gillis
VP: Sundin
GM: Chayka

Gillis can provide the exact experience both other guys lack. And I think he'd mesh well with both considering his history with Sundin and the similarities between him and Chayka. In 2-3 years when Gillis hits 70 he can step aside and let the two fully take over the reigns (assuming positive results).

Without Gillis though they should just hand the keys to Scott White.

Please hire Gillis as a consultant, sr advisor whatever.

I did see that Sundin has been doing some work with advisory boards for Swedish hockey development and the Salming foundation, so he’s not fresh off the street.

Chayka with real spending money to workshop his dreams of maximizing hockey performance would at least be a curiosity, and hopefully land on some effective processes. Get ready for more extremely tall draft picks. Is he even cleared to be hired?

That's my thing. Why are we putting Chayka over White who's in a winning org?

A part of me figures White doesn't want to leave Dallas for a role where he's just going to be second fiddle again... assuming reports of Sundin getting POHO or something similar are true.
