The Vancouver Canucks could be forced into a big change this summer, and now they've been linked to several coaches with Rick Tocchet potentially on the way out. This season has been a disaster for the Vancouver Canucks, with the team potentially missing out on the Stanley Cup Playoffs after cementing themselves as a genuine contender in 2023/24. With Rick Tocchet's contract up, there has been plenty of speculation he may look towards the new Philadelphia Flyers role as Head Coach, and with so many question marks over the future in Vancouver, he could be on the way out regardless of that Flyers job. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/JoshYohe_PGH/status/1905258324330713416'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> Despite that chatter, General Manager Patrik Allvin has revealed that they would like to keep him moving forward, noting that the front office would like to have that conversation with him in the very near future. «I sure hope that he's going to be part of this organization moving forward. That's a conversation that I hope we'll get to the finish line here sooner rather than later. However, some analysts have looked to the future in Vancouver. <h3>Canucks Linked To Several Head Coaching Candidates</h3> The Hockey News linking the Canucks to three intriguing targets as the next Head Coach of the Canucks, with all three likely providing excitement for the fanbase. Those three names are Andrew Brunette of the Nashville Predators, a team that could look to make changes of their own, Mike Sullivan, who has plenty of connections to Jim Rutherford and the Canucks front office, and Abbotsford Head Coach Manny Malhotra, who rejoined the organization this past summer with his role in the AHL. Ultimately, if the Canucks don't make the Stanley Cup Playoffs, it will be hard for the team to retain Tocchet given the interest around him, and with so many talented coaches out there, they will certainly have options if this does come to fruition.
