With the #habs front office in a state of turmoil, there's a widely held expectation inside the industry that the organization will pursue a French GM when it comes time to replace Marc Bergevin. Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) November 28, 2021
Very intriguing situation in Montreal. We know Scott Mellanby is out. He resigned. We know there's interest in Jeff Gorton. Geoff Molson is running point on this and it's believed, Gorton is targeted for a very substantial hockey operations position. Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger) November 28, 2021
