re: Pels probably hiring Redden as GM per Athletic

Don't get too excited yet. As I said day 1, Redden was Griffin's first call but it is a tough sell. What people need to understand is that the Pels "GM" position is a fake GM position. It comes with less power, responsibility, and therefore less salary than a typical GM job.

Redden will be a GM in this league, and could be one as early as next week in LA if their current GM takes the Minny job. That would come with more money, power, and a better market. A lot still in play. If Redden was a slam dunk, he would have already been announced because Griffin asked him days ago.
