Patrik Allvin announced that the man responsable for making Thatcher Demko and Arturs Silovs the goaltenders they are today, would change function within the organization and now act as a scout.
On the Donnie and Dhali show, Rick Dhaliwal addressed the Canucks' organizational change and confirmed that Ian Clark had been demoted. Some believed that he requested a change to be closer to home, but Dhaliwal was clear in his explanation:
A man of his stature, his experience and his resume, it would definitely not be a surprise if ended up shopping for a new team. The Canucks will have to grant him permission to seek for other opportunities, but it shouldn't be a problem.
At this moment, the clarification behind the Canucks' decision is still unknown and as he is still under contract with the team, Clark won't be coming out to the media anytime soon.
