There have been significant rumors this year about a potential departure of the Montreal Canadiens' Vice President of Hockey Operations, Jeff Gorton.

In response to what has been circulating about the future of the executive, who works in tandem with Kent Hughes in managing the team, the head honcho of the Tricolore, Geoff Molson, has now addressed the situation and provided some interesting clarifications.
"I've read the rumors in the newspapers too. The first call I made was to Jeff Gorton. No one has called me. It's a made-up story."

The specific rumor in question links Gorton to the Columbus Blue Jackets, who currently lack a general manager and where a reunion with John Davidson could occur. Gorton and Davidson previously worked together for several years during their time with the New York Rangers.
The rumor involving Gorton and the Blue Jackets of Columbus is now clearly addressed.
Moreover, Molson added another piece of information that will directly reassure Canadiens fans.
"The chances that I would allow the Blue Jackets to talk to him are zero."

It couldn't be clearer; Gorton is going nowhere, certainly not to Columbus.
