I got a better idea than both of these fools. How about you get an interim GM, and have that GM be a teaching tool for Spezza, so he can become the GM rather sooner than later..
Peter Chia-pet is itching for the phone call…
I can't understand why Marner is talked about as trade bait. He had 14 points in the two series and was Plus +7 third best on the roster. Nylander, finished the play offs with 10 points and Minus -4 fourth worse on the roster. That means Marner was on the ice for 7 of the opposition goals where as Nylander was on the ice for 14 of the opposition goals. Marner had more short handed goals and points, he had more power play points. They have to keep Marner.
Leafs need to get Yzerman the real 4 eyed stallion
Mark Hunter will be a good candidate
Mark messier,, darren McCarthy
As long as it's not an analytics guy, analytics are stupid
I will say it is impressive that Nylander is so hard to knock off the puck, but his problem is he does very little to get the puck back. He has the " oh I got beat for the puck there" move down to a science. And he keeps the puck so well because he wants to get a shot, he is rarely looking to set someone up unless he has no where to go. I wish people would stop bad mouthing MARNER. Also Mathews needs to get in better shape, he seems to have slowed this season, that's ok but get back at it.
If they lost in the 7th game, it might wash but the way it went was Humiliating.
He’s not on the what’s up anymore
Please don't hire Hayley Wickenheiser! Hire a seasoned GM!!!
1 word jason spezza
Mike Futa
Doug Gilmour? Wendel Clark? Darryl Sittler?
I fully expect the inept incompetent Board to get it wrong.
Leafs should hire this guy Kyle Dubas to bring them the cup 💀
More than Dubas, I feel like the Leafs country club atmosphere is to blame for their lack of playoff success. The players are treated and catered to like Stanley Cup winners without coming close to winning the Cup, especially the core 4. No urgency or desperation in their gameplay, no accountability, coaches who make excuses for them, and 3 out of the 4 are amongst the top 10 highest paid players in the NHL. Do the Leafs need a new GM? Probably. But what they really need is a culture change.
TRADE MATTHEWS.
Dubas takes next year off then takes over in Edmonton
Mike Futa (1st choice) or Mark Yannetti (2nd choice).
lol and just like that, on to the next. Just shows it really doesn't matter who the GM is now; the core didnt get it done and WONT get it done. TOO SOFT
Too much money was paid to Tavares,Mathews and Marner who never won anything in the NHL. Teams should only experience Salary Cap issues after winning the Stanley Cup not in their quest for the first one.
What a joke, Shany rubber stamped all the decisions that lead to 6 first round exits before they finally put together a team capable of winning one round and Shany wanted the failed Dumas back up until this week, Shany needs to be fired as well.
The Leafs should consider not only hiring Mark Hunter as GM of the Maple Leafs, but his brother Dale as head coach.
Hire Craig Button, He has all the answers the morning after every game.
Jim Rutherford. Get him from VAN. Tease him.
Oh no, the Soo nepotism is broken after Dubas not retained. Two former Soo associater let go in the Marlies coaching staff !
Ron Hextall 🫵 you are a Toronto maple leaf
It is human nature that if you don't pay your dues, then you develop a sense of entitlement that we refer to as being 'spoiled'. Dubas' behaviour over the last few days would indicate that this is exactly what happened to him. Get someone who has been working their tail off and has developed some genuine competence… never make someone King that has not apprenticed under true masters for a very long time. Dubas reminds me of the young teacher that wants to be friends with their students.
The only one I would say is a must keep is Marner. Every single situation you could ever find yourself in, he's the one you throw on. 1st line, 1st PP, 1st PK, etc…
Brad Treliving didn't exactly cover himself in glory by getting rid of Tkachuk to get Huberdeau. Why are we thinking of someone who, at his best won all of one round, and then missed the playoffs the next year. Shouldn't we aim to find a winner, not someone less successful than Dubus.
Mark Hunter if he wants it
Darryl Sutter
To be fair the team and management have underperformed in the playoffs
Mike Milbury needs a job.
Please hire Haley Wickenheiser!! Then i nevervhave to watch hockey again! Clowns may do it!
NO MARK HUNTER… MARNER HAS TO GO,
shanahan should go
Best to trade Matthews quick to Arizona before his No Trade clause kicks in.
MIKE BABCOCK!!
Meh, I think it's progress on top of progress. Good luck!
3 words: Mark F**king Hunter
Flames have now allowed Tre to talk to other teams .
