But the roadmap is taking shape. Asked for his broad vision for the front office, Francis replies, “I want an environment with our staff that’s inclusive. Everyone should feel like they have a voice and they should be willing to express that voice without any fear of ridicule and retribution.” He hopes to find an assistant GM soon, as well as bolster the analytics staff under Mandrycky to begin building the team’s expansion draft tools. Citing the looming possibility of a lockout-shortened season in ‘20-21, Francis also stressed the importance of finding “four to five” pro scouts “in the right locations” this year. The projected window for hiring a coach won’t come until Jan. to June 2021, though that could change with the right candidate.
