In an interview with Renaud Lavoie, from TVA Sports, Geoff Molson settled the Jeff Gorton file, on behalf of the Montreal Canadiens.
For some time now, rumors have been sending him as GM elsewhere, notably with the Columbus Blue Jackets, but the big boss has just very clearly settled the matter.
The Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations for the Montreal Canadiens, Jeff Gorton, will stay with the Habs, Geoff Molson assures!
Let's not forget that Gorton was Molson's number one choice from the very beginning. He's his guy, he's the one who chose him, and he's going to keep him.
It's great news to finally learn, so definitively, that Jeff Gorton is going to stay in Montreal. He's been doing a great job, along with Kent Hughes, since his arrival. He can be proud!
