Interesting that Gorton held this presser instead of our bilingual GM. I didn't see the presser. I'm assuming there was a lot of translation?
Confirmed with Link: Jeff Gorton will Speak Jun 27 5:30pm ET (2:30pm PT)

No translation as far as I saw on the YouTube link. Kent Hughes is supposed to meet with the media tonight after the draft. Pretty sure I read that somewhere.

Pre draft meeting was just to get our fan base and media a little calmer but good luck with that. haha.
No way Hughes could do this pre draft. He's far to busy evaluating things and Gorton said there is a lot of conversations going on with GM's. He feels there will be a fair amount of trades based on the conversations out there. Also said the Habs are loaded with assets so that creates more conversations for us. We already kind of knew this though

It's very variable. Back when I was a running a channel, it was around $1 per 1k views for me and I had better views per video lmao.
If that is still true today, Mariano is making at most $12 per 1 hour video lol

Because Hughes massively f***ed up by settting the expectations to the public we would take a forward.
Gorton out there doing damage control now because they probably know we were taking a D.

Didn't he say (or at least strongly imply) that all things being equal we wouldn't take a LD?

Agreed,
He implied that all things being equal that a LD would not be their preference which is obviously the truth but he definitely did not rule out a LD if that is their BPA. The narrative that he will not take a LD is unfounded and comes from a misinterpretation of what he said.

Gorton is a master politician, which is why he spoke first - 5 people have 5-different takes on what he said …. that’s PR mastery

This has been said about every coach by every GM/President at some point leading up to a mid season firing. Are they actually going to say that we aren't going to fire him today but probably soon lol? They wanted to at least make it to the end of the season but it just went completely off of the rails and left no choice for Gorton and Hughes.

He did. But he should know the general public is stupid and he needs to chose his words wisely. Everyone thinks the Habs are locked in for a F

Yeah I know. But in this particular case I thought it was unnecessary . The team was going nowhere . The season was wasted. No one would expect the new GM/VP to fully support the coach in this situation. But he learned from that. He's been perfectly vague and boring since then, hence why this is the only thing I remember him saying.
