Malhotra Hire Gives Canucks-South Asian Community A Big Moment

The Canucks’ decision to bring in Malhotra lands with real weight well beyond the bench. In a league that still notices who gets through the door, this is the kind of move people in the South Asian hockey community will remember. It is also the sort of hire that says something about where Vancouver wants to go next, because front offices do not make these calls without knowing exactly what message they are sending.
