Major publication concerning Jeff Gorton's role and it's really making people talk

In the last few minutes, former Montreal Canadiens head coach Michel Therrien has published a striking article, and it concerns Jeff Gorton's role with the Habs.

The title of his article says it all: "Gorton controls everything".

Therrien gives as an example the decision to submit Rem Pitlick to waivers.




He adds that he believes Gorton is the key player in the Habs' hockey department.


Still, he believes that Gorton checks in with his professional scouts and consults his world, but Therrien seems to believe that Jeff Gorton plays a much bigger role in Montreal than people think.

It's true that since the hiring of Kent Hughes as general manager, we've heard a lot less about Gorton, but he's there and he's obviously got some serious power.


After all, let's remember that he was the one who picked Kent Hughes in the first place.

An interesting paper and a good reminder of the crucial role Jeff Gorton plays in Montreal. So far, like Kent Hughes, he seems to be doing an outstanding job.

The Habs are moving in the right direction and we love it! It's a little different in Montreal with Gorton and Hughes, but it's the result that counts.
