Brendan Shanahan thoroughly explained why he made the choice to part ways with Kyle Dubas as the general manager of the Maple Leafs, and Dubas’ indecisiveness may have led the Leafs president to make his ultimate decision. TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button discusses how they got here and stated that he believes George McPhee would be the ideal candidate to take over the GM duties in Toronto.

I heard Kyle Dubas was looking for a job. We should hire him!
Please get Jim Benning. Maple Leafs news and vids like these would be so much more interesting.
Marc Bergevin
What about kekalainen
Peter Chiarelli 😊😊😊
How about Bob McCown?
Kyle wanted MORE CONTROL (and money) shanahan said NO. Supposedly Shanahan has stopped multiple trades in the past!!
it will be treliving it's an open secret lol
Get Mike Milbury out of retirement
How does Shanahan keep his job ? He is way over his head . Get rid of him and Keefe . One gone two to go ! Dubas was a bad hire from the start ! Hire an experienced GM and a well respected coach.
Dubas was a good gm, a players gm. Now they will hire a tyrant old school guy and players will bounce.
Bring back Brian Burke!
Hire Ed Olczyk
Jim Benning did ok drafting and when he came into Vancouver he got ok value for a Kesler deal to basically 2 destinations. That could help in a quickly developing Mathews/Arizona situation. I think his drafting shows a strong record. Forsling Mccann look like good players that moved out of vancouver but picked my him.
Hunter brothers!!!!! Plain and simple
Four Teams left in the Cup Finals and all TSN wants to talk about is the Leafs? Who gives a darn about those perenial losers!
This hot mess looks so good on Shanascam and the Makebeleafs. Harold Ballard is rolling around in his grave laughing at ALL of you! 🤣😂🤣🍁🍁💙🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Not buying it. Losing DUBAS was a trip and fall for all the wrong reasons.
I'll take the GM job I assess players personal draft trade and am transparent
it is clear that i alone am the ideal candidate for this job! like some orange guy said, "i alone can fix it"!
Patrick Roy.
Please, please, please….hire Peter Charelli 😂
Draft what you need not BPA.
Marc Bergevin
Name one other GM, Coach or Toronto Executive in history that after leaving or being fired by the Leaf's remained top of mind and part of the daily Toronto press and discussion. Toronto Media doesn't care about former Leaf team players, managers and executive careers. If Duba's as an example moves to the Peguins, great for him….But TSN or Sports Net will never cover or prop up Dubas as the God they have done in the past and currently.
It's tough to run a team in Toronto when you live in New York city. 🙄
just waiting for chuck fletcher to get hired so you can just finish up and bury leafs fans
Dubas screwed the team for the next 5 years. Hard cap is a reality.
George McPhee ?!?! No 😮way Craig he stays in Las Vegas 😅
Don Cherry?
Craig Button for GM! I already watch this team fail year after year, why not go all in on failure
Jim Benning….Former GM, Former Leaf 1st round pick, You know you want him…..signed Canuck Fans!
Dubas should have be fired as soon as he traded for Murray. Trading for a guy who played 47 games in 2 years is a fireable offence. That’s just one of,any faux pas Dubas made.
Marc Bergevin's the perfect man for the GM role. He brought in players such as Suzuki, Weber, Anderson, Drouin, Caufield and Allen to name a few with the Habs. He's got bite and not afraid to make decisions. Brad Treliving would be a mistake for the Leafs. He couldn't get Gaudreau and Tkachuk to stay with Calgary. Markstrom was a big mistake, Huberdeau and Kadri underachieved for the Flames and never made the playoffs.
