Love your podcast guys and I understand where you're coming from but I don't think this episode will age well. Give this bright 36 year-old executive with Sundin standing over him, a chance.
I like Futa as a hockey guy with a good heart but I could not stand the thought of Gillis running the Leafs. I don't want the NHL old boys network retreads running the Leafs.
Just my two cents but I thank you both for your passion and thoughts. 🙏🏻
F them all. This franchise is a joke.
seems odd that nobody is reporting this except steve simmons
The rebuild will be forced on them. Leaf fans know this but the short-sighted greed of Rogers Corp is interfering with the correct hockey decision here. They would actually make more money in the long run if they made correct hockey decisions. This shitshow is fundamentally the fault of ownership.
If Toronto hires Mats Sundin, I'm done. The Leafs have been mismanaged since Cliff Fletcher. I'm just so fed up.
As someone who loves Leafs comedy I pray they hire Chayka and Tie Domi plays a big role somehow😆.
Sundin I get (à la Joe Sakic in Colorado), but Chayka & Tie Domi part of it is classic Maple Queefs of the last 55+ years (outside of a good 10 yr run from 93-02….they blew Matthews/Marner/Willie era)!😂
Blaming Matthews/Marner/Nylander classic delusional Leafs fans too when it’s not their fault at all they’ve never once played with anyone close to a legit #1 D-man (or great blue line), great goalie, or great lines 3/4. Ownership/FO loves goobers blaming some of their best players ever! At this point they absolutely should trade them, but the TEAM built around the 3 best players was AWFUL.
I have been sick of this team for the last 2 years, I have been a fan for 14 years and I'm almost getting to the point where in switching teams. MONTREAL AND BUFFALO
Just another stupid Maple Leafs move. Nothing new. Im so done, I'll cheer for another team. What a waste of time, all the years. Time to move on, I refuse to watch this total nonsense.
This is the real hockey season in Toronto!!
I'll never forget the press conference where Richard Peddie sat beside Cliff Fletcher and mimicked his entire speech. Keith Pelley is giving me those same vibes. Dark times are ahead.
Chayka is probably the worst choice they could make. Sundin should choose his own GM. Thats his job
Carlton the Bear is done. Here comes the Wendy’s mascot Melinda Lou. OMG!!!!
Sundin was a great captain and led by example. I think he has respect in the league and thats important. The problem is, the GM should have respect, and Chyka doesnt have that. Being a GM is much about who you know. If they dont like you, they wont answer the phone.
Leafs need a guy who can beg for mercy and hope he gets a sweet deal for a real player. They dont have much to giveup. Only charity will help with this mess.
Also …. How would sundin expect Rielly to wave his NTC when Sundin wouldnt do it? Thats Sundins one negative, he wouldnt help out Toronto when they wanted to trade him.
This upcoming Leafs Era will either be the worst debacle in franchise history making Ballard look like a hockey money spending team building genius.
Or it will bring a cup to Toronto after almost 60 years of shit and be one of the most successful eras since the 60s and 50s.
I am betting the conitinuation of utter shit.
I have been a die hard fan since I was 7 going back to 1987. But I think I might be done.
I hope Sundin knows what he is doing because this move might tarnish his Leafs Legand status.
Knowing this team, they will trade Knies and Cowan for utter shit and this team is done for a minimum of a decade if not 2.
President Pellegrino
Vice president and Goodwill coordinator SUNDIN
GM CHAYKA
TRELIVING the pizza delivery boy
CHAYKA a burger flipper
He will put a Wendy's franchise in and charge 35 bucks for a burger
His knowledge of AI analytics is this
He stands there all day flipping burgers and counts so many he flipped
Coach BERUBE
We ain't going nowhere
We could get worse for the set up
Whoever they hire they hire
Leafs fans will know immediately if they are going to the playoffs if things are staying the same or if they get worse
It is very obvious that Pellegrino traded Minton for Brando Carlo fuerst draft pick and something else based on AI analytics and then when it went wrong blamed it on TRELIVING
Pellegrino was in the war room with his AI analytics reports
Beautiful
Shameful
Pelley is a mark. An old rich gullible boomer; and everyone knows it. Whoever is a better snake oil salesmen will get his attention.
Where's Sundin getting his experience from? 😂
They could have saved a lot of money by just buying a magic 8 ball. It would be a better manager.
…. if true, this is a JOKE….!!!! Sundin who has lived in Sweden for the last 17 years and has been out of touch with the North American hockey scene, not to mention ZERO EXPERIENCE. The Arizona guy who has not won anything in his life. A TOTAL JOKE….!!!!
….
Marc Bergevin was available, and he famously shipped Domi out of MTL for playoff human wrecking ball Josh Anderson. Chayka will probably make Domi captain of the team.
i'm not even watching a game. i'll check in with you boys every week. you give the overview we need. Leaf fans need to stop going to games.
It never ends with this franchise eh ha ha ain’t got a fuking clue. That dork Keith Pelley 🤓 That needs to go ASAP!
Honestly at this point just who cares about this hockey team as a fan just who cares 40 year's of this SHIT just F em at this point i don't understand how they can be so DUMB
They’re going all in with AI boys. Mats and Chayka are just puppets. Pelley’s interview and the story about how he behaved during the trade deadline speaks volumes. Also, I’m now 99% sure Bérubé is coming back. This organization is a joke.
the oilers did the same thing when they got all those first overalls, hiring legacy ass licks ruined them for going on 20 years now. Pelly only wants yes men to pretend to be GM while he torpedos the future Pelly is all ego
First time viewer, absolutely love you guys…..Chad & Dale right? You guys rock it! You hit the nail on the head……Keith Pelley is the Leafs President and Sundin is there as the P.R. guy to distract from the Chayka hiring. It'll be interesting to know how many NHL teams had Chayka on the top of their list as their new General Manager? Looking back now, Shanahan, Dubas and Keefe look pretty good. Hell, Prime Minister Mark Carney and Premier Doug Ford would look pretty good too!🤣
i know this family…mom is total airhead…dad is smart, sister is hot, John tried to become a NFL big shot while with the Coyotes…they found out and fired him. He is a turncoat. He is smart, and hell maybe this works out, but he is a slimeball, so he will fit right in with MLSE.
Pelley said that this will be the most important decision of his tenure in Toronto and THIS is the result…😳😂💩
Why Chayka? Guess he's heavy into the analytics, his pay will be cheap compared to the quality candidates, and he has no problem kissing Pelly's azz. He won't demand full control over hockey decisions. Sundin will provide him some cover. I thought Pelley might hesitate on this, given the serious negative blowback from media and fans, but sounds like he's going to bulldoze ahead anyway.
And you thought the team was dysfunctional? Now the management has gone to the toilet! Utter crap…..
Years of misery ahead
Only Toronto fans call the Leafs “the crown jewel of the hockey world”. Even guys who have been correctly critical of the selection process, continue to suggest this is a greatly coveted position, but the market is telling a different story. If this position is highly coveted, top level candidates come out of the woodwork to put their hands up to interview for the role. You don’t need a search firm (or search party lol) to find them hiding under the floorboards. Where are all those candidates??? The phone is not ringing. No one with the level of talent required for this wants to work in Toronto. It’s where great careers go to die and the entire league and industry knows it. This is a “fish rots from the head” problem and this fish has been spoiled for a long time. Sorry guys, until the organization replaces its boardroom windows with some mirrors, nothing will change in Toronto
This is Rogers .. not Pelley.
This will be the demise of this franchise Pelley is a total idiot
Nailed it, the whole thing, nailed it
Guys this all about cheap rogers wanting not to pay up for a good GM. Rogers is all about making money. I won't be surprised if trash berube is back because rogers don't want to pay him to sit at home. Leafs fans are screwed.
It's a disaster 👎
Note to Keith Pelly: You should fire the firm that helped you make this decision. Chayka seriously? The guy was suspended by the NHL for being a shady POS. The Mats Sundin hire I'm totally ok with. But why is he only the VP? Keith Pelly should not be president. I know more about hockey than he does. The only reason Chayka was even considered was because he's friends with Tie Domi. Is Domi seriously pulling the strings behind the scenes?? Good luck trading Max Domi now. All of this smells funny. Notice that this all became dysfunctional when Pelly came along?
What has Chuck Fletcher ever done to get hired?
Roger's are penny pinching money grubbers who will eventually destroy everything they touch
Are you kidding me disaster
I'm done Good luck leaf fans
Wow
Leafs need a singular owner not a soulless conglomerate.
Pronger Pronger Pronger Pronger…enough said
It's a buddy system
Doesn't Sundin have the right to hire his own GM
The bottom line here with the leafs is that the “fanbase” must stop going to games !! Just stop! Stop being stopped sheep and falling off the cliff with these morons at MLSE. From now on everything that gets worse is the fanbase and city’s fault.
guys, you're leaving out so much context with chayka/AZ lol…
