Dramatic turn of events: the Ottawa Senators fire GM Pierre Dorion and Patrick Roy officially has a complete door open

As you know, when the Montreal Canadiens parted ways with Marc Bergevin, a certain Michael Andlauer is said to have strongly insisted that Patrick Roy be considered as a candidate for the next general manager.

At that time, Andlauer was a minority owner of the Canadiens, but now he has become the major boss of the Ottawa Senators." This suggests a narrative where Michael Andlauer, previously a minority owner of the Montreal Canadiens, had advocated for Patrick Roy's candidacy for the general manager role after Marc Bergevin's departure, and has now taken on a significant leadership role with the Ottawa Senators.

And the Sens have just fired their GM Pierre Dorion!

A case to follow, but you can guess that there are many who believe that Patrick Roy could be his replacement.


In any case, a big door has just opened for him!

Details will follow.
