I knew this was coming since the Canadiens were taking their time in hiring the new GM. Sure they were exploring their options but it seemed obvious to me that they were waiting for the Blackhawks to be eliminated.

Good choice - HabsRUs
TSN running it as well.
Time will tell if this is good or bad. Looks like people are relieved that it's not McGuire.
Glad it's over and that they took their time and stuck true to their word that it would be an extensive process. Next step, coaching staff. - Ultimate Cyberhabs
They are probably waiting to see what happens with Vigneault.

I am not so sure. If Vigneault was going to be let go, he would have by now. Not knocking Vigneault but Vancouver is miles ahead of the Habs in terms of talent. Not saying that Vigneault is a bad coach, far from it, but his accomplishments with Vancouver need to be put into the context of their lineup and if you compare it to the Habs, it's not even close.

Good points, what do you think about Roy being the Coach?
