In an interview at the combine with La Presse today, Bob Gainey shed some light on his offseason activity so far this summer. That being that there is no activity, and that not much should be expected until the club is sold.
Gainey said that he has been in touch with Montreal's pending free agents, but that actual negotiations have not taken place with any of those players. This would appear to conflict with reports of Kovalev receiving a ludicrous contract offer for next year.
When asked about the Canadiens being in different hands next season, Gainey replied, "It is my understanding that there will be new owners." The Habs GM acknowledged that having new ownership may influence what direction the club takes when signing free agents and deciding on a new head coach.
