Canucks confirm that Rachel Doerrie is no longer with the organization

In recent days, rumors had picked up that Rachel Doerrie, who had been hired by the Vancouver Canucks roughly eight months ago, had been fired.

That appears to be the case, as the organization confirmed on Friday afternoon that she is no longer with them. At the time she was hired, she was brought on as part of the analytics team, but only a few short weeks back had been promoted to Bruce Boudreau's coaching staff. To say the least, this entire situation is a rather odd one, though Doerrie herself has not responded to any requests for a comment on the situation.

There is plenty of speculation circulating on Twitter as to why she may have been let go, but nothing to this point has been confirmed. Many were also quick to point out that Doerrie deleted all tweets from her Twitter account, one in which she has been quite active on in the past. Expect to hear more about this situation in the near future.
