Derek Clancey Departs Canucks for Assistant General Manager Role with the Maple Leafs
Former Canucks Assistant General Manager Joins Rival Team
Clancey Exits After Four Years in Vancouver
Vancouver Canucks Assistant General Manager Derek Clancey has left the organization to join the Toronto Maple Leafs in a similar role. Clancey was the first person hired by Jim Rutherford when he took over as President of Hockey for the Canucks in 2021.
During his four years with the Canucks, Clancey played a significant role in player evaluation, contract negotiations, and scouting. He was considered a key member of Rutherford's management team.
The Maple Leafs have not yet officially announced Clancey's hiring, but multiple sources have confirmed his departure from the Canucks. It is unclear at this time what Clancey's specific responsibilities will be with the Leafs.
A Lasting Impression
Clancey's departure leaves a significant void in the Canucks' front office. He was a respected and experienced executive with a strong track record of success. His departure may signal a shift in the Canucks' organizational structure as they continue to rebuild their team.
