I wonder what Dorion will say about this on his new platform? Will insecurities and defensiveness shine through? Hopefully he just leaves the Ottawa experience be, but I doubt it.
I don't think he will roast anybody or say anything controversial, at least not intentionally, unless he knows there is no chance he is getting back into the league. I could see him saying something controversial if his communication skills in French are at the same level as they are in English, but I don't think he will intentionally try to stir things up or be negative.
He will always have the Euge' card to pull in defense of his moves. I am not saying that is the full truth and Dorion otherwise would be an elite or even passable GM, but he can always say true or not, I had to trade for Debrincat because we needed to excite the fan base to sell season tickets, or I couldn't re-sign Karlsson because Eugene wouldn't go for it at market value and Karl and him weren't on good terms. Some of it might be true, some of it might be inflated.
I imagine his show will be a typical nothing burger hockey show and his take on Ullmark/Korpisalo would be he liked Korpisalo, sometimes it doesn't work out, and Staios did a great job to get Ullmark and find a place where Korpisalo can shine.
I still think he should become a shock jock. But that's never going to happen.
