I bet Sather promised to step down after the draft, if Gorton agreed not to head to Boston. Boston offered a threat to probably push Sather out sooner than later.

Good for Gorton.

Lifetime job for him in New York. Dolan ignores the hockey department and just meddles with the Knicks.

I thought it was all pretty obvious why Gorton seemed locked in. Whether Sather stepped down now or later, he was getting that job.

Oh well, that explains a lot. Well, we are going with Sweeney now anyways so no use crying over spilled milk.
