Former Assistant General Manager's Departure Leaves Void in Vancouver

Derek Clancey, the first person hired by Jim Rutherford upon his appointment as President of Hockey Operations for the Vancouver Canucks in 2021, is leaving the NHL.
Clancey has accepted a position with the Toronto Maple Leafs as Assistant General Manager. His departure leaves a significant void in the Canucks' front office.
The reason for Clancey's departure has not been disclosed. However, his departure comes at a time when the Canucks are undergoing a significant rebuild under new General Manager Patrik Allvin.
Clancey was a key figure in the Canucks' rebuild. He was responsible for managing the team's scouting department and overseeing player development.
His departure is a blow to the Canucks, who are hoping to rebuild quickly and return to contention in the near future.
