Scott Mellanby Leaves Canucks For Assistant Coach Job With Blues

That from Jeff Marek on Twitter. Mellanby was a special consultant to Mike Gillis and the Canucks' hockey operations department. He played for the Blues from 2000 to 2004. *edit* I should add that Mellanby will remain with the Canucks until mid-July before moving on, you know, past the draft and free agency season.

Did anybody know? See any pictures? Any quotes? What the hell did he do with the Canucks?

I remember when he got hired, but what did he do? I’m stumped.

He was a "special consultant"

you don’t know what that means? What’s wrong with you? Seriously though I have no idea what he actually did I just know he was doing something.

“I think Mike valued my opinion and my experience in the league,” Mellanby told the Canadian Press. "I was fortunate to play 20 years, through a lot of different situations from teams like the Philadelphia Flyers, who have been around for a while, to expansion teams.

“I played with a lot of players. I think I have a lot of things to offer.”

Just a consultant to an inexperienced GM. Gee rough job.

Did he even once set foot in Vancouver?
