The Montreal Canadiens continue to talk to forward Brian Gionta but aren't getting too far according to Renaud Lavoie:

#canadiens are still hopeful to sign Mike Weaver. They are less hopeful to sign Brian Gionta. He could hit the market July 1st. — Renaud Lavoie (@renlavoietva) June 28, 2014

According to Lavoie, Gionta's priority remains re-signing with the Canadiens.
