Changes are coming in NHL Player Safety, with sources indicating George Parros will emerge as a major voice in the decision-making process.
Current Senior Vice-President Stephane Quintal is expected to stay in the department for the time being to help with the transition. But it would not be a surprise if he looks for something else, either within the NHL or an individual club.
