Karine Hains: Gorton’s First Move They say start as you mean to go on and hopefully, that’s just what Gorton did this afternoon by claiming a young puck-moving defenseman.

It's promising, as I see it anyway... you have to hit rock bottom, they did.... and hired someone to build it back up the right way

yeah, at least we have something to look forward to with these front office changes, and the upcoming draft in MTL, which should be really interesting... would be nice in the meantime though if they could get it together on the ice, not to win games or anything but just to give an acceptable effort and avoid being completely embarrassed with every loss.

Good move.

He was drafted 2016 man. Other dmen drafted around the same pick have been steady producers for their teams and have played hundreds of games by now. He’s a nhl/Ahl tweener at best.

bah, I don't really have any expectations but he's 23, it's not that old for a dman.

Good move.

Yup

Gorton's first move Is to tell the fans and toxic Montreal media to shut the f#^k up!!!!!

23 is already lights out for an NHL D?


And he does have 5 points in 11 games, already best PPG average by any defeseman on the Habs, so there's that!

Not too worried about on ice right now, hoping for strong seasons out of a couple individuals but mostly need to lose, it's the nature of the beast

that's what I'm saying, I don't want them to start winning games, just that they reach a level of play that doesn't make fans want to throw their jersey on the ice lol... the result can be the same but the process doesn't have to be so damn ugly.

Gorton mentioned a "committee" will be created for the GM interviewing process/hiring, and the members of this committee are to be determined...

You didn’t get the memo??

What they need is a focus group to determine the appropriate advisors to choose the best committee members to hire the ideal GM to work with Gorton to fix the Habs. Why is that so confusing for people?
