David Montgomery Quotations

I like older people, ... How can't I?

We're a better club today than when he took over, ... However, we set goals for ourselves and haven't achieved our goals. I think it's appropriate that we find a new GM.

I don't know if we'll end up with a sexy general manager, ... I'm not sure I know exactly what that means. It's important for us to get the right general manager.

I think we?re anxious to make the right decision. I don?t know how long that will take.

This was a very difficult decision. Ed has devoted himself completely to this organization for 16 years, the last eight as general manager. I believe he's done a good job. We're a better club today than when he took over. However, we set goals for ourselves. We haven't achieved our goals. I think it's appropriate at this time to find a new GM.
