Roy has been the hot rumour around town for a while, but it’s unclear to me whether it’s fan fiction or has substance. Andlauer was with the Habs a long time, and is big on tradition, so it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he has become enamoured with the idea. Roy would also be the kind of big fish new owners like to lure in early.
At the same time, he’s wildly unpredictable in a way that seems to clash with the way Andlauer and Staios have spoken about establishing stability in the franchise.
I think most likely scenario is that Martin sees out the year and they do a proper search once the GM position has been decided (Martin might be a candidate for that, too)
