Some good names there, even tho I have no idea about who Gilman is.
Am I just being defensive as a canes fan or is the Canadian media really blowing Dundon out of proportion?
Every quote I see from Dundon seems to make reasonable sense, but even though he's 2 months on the the job they are trying to paint him as some meddlesome nightmare to work for.

Not so much personality but doing things differently from what the good old boys are used to. Being a "disruptor" in stripping off how things are traditionally done to put in a more effective system. Dundon wants to run the canes like he would any other business. It's hands on but not in the same way as a jerry jones. Not hands on the decisions, but hands on shaping the system by how decisions are made. I think this is good. The old boys club mentality has been heavily entrenched, hiring friends and former players for this and that, in this franchise for so long Dundon decided to rip the band aid off. It's guaranteed that was going to rub people the wrong way, especially when it happened to someone so respected and beloved as Francis. But that's how you have to run a business.Having personality in hockey is a scary thought for some folks
Please don't make me scratch my screen anymore.
"Why does Carolina get the best French Canadian gm?" "Well there were all those Quebec City rumors for many years..."Montreal will burn if you guys hire Brisebois.
Hire Brisebois.
We should call them that "We would like Price...." and then stop and listen them holding their breath.Montreal will burn if you guys hire Brisebois.
Hire Brisebois.

I wonder what his hfboard handle is.Not just Canadian media: do yourself a favor and don't read Ryan Lambert's "writing" on Yahoo Sports today.

Fenton, wonder how much he’s been involved with Nashville.
BriseBois and Futa are probably front runners
What has Dundon done to deserve this "meddlesome owner" nonsense though? And there's absolutely nothing to suggest that Dundon wants complete control over player personnel. If that's what he wanted, he'd just make himself the GM.
