Speculation: Next GM

[HavlatMach9]

You're all speculating that Dorion dislikes his position as head scout of our organization. For some the job is about happiness, not dollar bills. I believe Dorion stays in this organization and that Melnyk will give Dorion initiatives to stay. Tim and Dorion will be here after BM moves to presidency.

I thought it was because someone from our organization was allowed to speak with the Habs organization about their GM opening.

Why is Dorion not their GM, if that is the case?

 

[Lenny the Lynx]

I think Melnyk will clean house and the Murray Family will be out of the picture!

This.

I'm so sick of all these hotshot prospects coming in to town, meeting their potential or even over-performing.

And what's with all these playoff appearances? We are supposed to be rebuilding...

Why is Dorion not there GM, if that is the case?

Because he didn't get the job?

 

[Goat Boy]

Because he didn't get the job?

This. Dorion is bad at interviews. They asked him "what makes you the best candidate for the position", and he just sat there like a deer in the headlights. Also forgot to send a follow-up thank you letter.

I'm sure Dorion gets paid pretty big too. He clearly likes it here and the organization he works for and i'm sure they appreciate him as well. Someone mentioned early about Dorion not being used to speaking to the media etc - from the interviews i've seen of him on radio tv etc... he certainly comes across very well.

I hear CarknerCountry is in the running, but Wilfred might beat him out in the end.

I spoke to Pierre Dorion a few times and I get the feeling he's not looking to be involved in the management side of the business. Just like Craig Button, he grew up in the scouting world, he knows his stuff, like to be in charge of the scouting team, it's the perfect role for him.

Give me Timmay!!

... didn't Craig Button take the GM job in Calgary around 99/00?

yeah. And he was disastrous. His work in calgary is part of the reason for their post-lockout slide.

 

[Laphroaig]

If Melnyk insists on staying within the organization I prefer Dorion to Tim Murray if only because he's a much better interview.

Alfie for assistant GM.
