JD Shanny probably didn't get approval to extend Dubas until after the season. So can't really blame him for that. Overall though the org should have just fired or extended him last year. Also, the Dubas stans are absolutely insufferable.
Kyle is an illiterate, why? No modern team has ever won a Stanley Cup, with four finesse forwards coupled with average defence and average goaltending…it’s not a winning template.
Dude JD, fix your camera…
Hand in the cookie Jar Kyle! Back to Tier 2
JD makes me laugh here. I'm from Toronto and would love to see the Leafs win so I'm not hating when I say this
But the "it's Toronto" is lame. How many people are banging on the door of the leafs to come home? JT came home because he got massively over payed. Winning in Miami is the same as Toronto, a championship is a championship. It means more In Toronto to FANS that's it. It means the same to the players regardless where it happens
Come to stark realization that a Canadian team probably won't win a title for a longggg time. Canadian boys can have no pressure and rack up titles in American markets, why bother with the pressure of playing for a Canadian team? Vegas has what 20/23 skaters who are Canadian? And they're located in Vegas? Good luck Canada
Dubas was offered that contract last weekend, he did not have it "sitting on his desk" since March. (SOURCE: SHANAHAN).
The "Dubas Plan" was working. He completely rebuilt the entire organization in the front office and on the ice. Spezza left (he was Dubas' assistant, so that makes sense), and based on insider tweets a lot of the organization is unhappy with how Shanahan sewered Dubas.
(Yes, it was a sewer job. When a tight lipped organization decides to be so open it is a calculated move, and it's not a hard batch of math to do).
He would have GMed the Leafs to a cup, now this team is going to implode unless they get lucky. I hope Matthews, Marner and Rielly tell Leafs management to go love themselves, they deserve it.
So now McKee says Shanny wasn't spinning? On K&B, he argued that he WAS spinning, until Kyper rightly blasted him for it. McKee's must be a beauty of a producer, bc his on-air behavior is childish and unprofessional. So many times this season Kyper glares after Mckee says something stupid, mostly odd comments about himself, or too personal insults at opposing coaches and players. He also used to stare at his phone while Bunkis was talking on Leafs Talk, and someone upstairs put a stop to that real quick.
16-17m of this epi… preach JD
David Poile retired with his good friend taking over but you think the leaf's could get him??? I think you think to highly of T.O….sorry but most American's dont even think of the Leaf's 1st when it comes to Canada 100% it Montral! Stop thinking your the center of the hockey world…NY bigger market Florida no Taxes….stop thinking you are the best STOP
Oh yeah, truly a terrible hockey team he built there in Toronto. He definitely deserved to be fired 😶
221-109-42 lol pretty decent record!? 4th best record in the league last year? Can Kyle go out and perform in the playoffs for these guys? Sheesh. I hope this mess chases everyone away starting with Matthews and then Leafs nation can remember how much worse it is to be at the bottom of the league rather than being a team good enough to lock into a playoff spot at basically the midway point of the season. No appreciation from fans spoiled with one of the best teams in the league for how many years now? Do yall really not remember being really really bad? It wasn't that long ago but it seems you guys still act the exact same way lol…
Leaf nation could also take a look at the 4 teams left in the playoffs now. Ya'll put so much pressure on these players rather than just letting them do their thing and actually supporting them. Seriously yall went from cheering like you won the god damn cup after finally getting out of the first round to blowing it all up firing the GM and likely the coach right before several pivotal decisions need to be made with the core contract situations and there's no GM in place. Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill WOW.
Did you two even listen to Shanahan's presser….he wanted a vet GM! wow leaf's fans are lost
Just like Shanahan, this Bunkis clown should be the one gone. Sammy McKee is the man!
This podcast was refreshing like a cold Pinapple Fanta
The fact dubas signed those hard line contracts and aligned with his own. Tells me he was thinking about his own job security, and it back fired big time.
😂 these tokked “fans” want MORE of Kyle after 9 years. It’s insane the amount of runway this cult will give objective failures.
The biggest problem with our team is these 4 contracts. How can you as a GM allow 4 players to all have no move kick in the same time. I loved Dubas trades. Some were fantastic. Sandin move, not a fan of. Also now Dubas is batting .000 for negotiations. Completely screwed his own. 0 for 5 baby.
The gm options you guys mentioned are awful, no thank you.
Liv take is an L.
Don't you think players would be more accountable if they were afraid of moving ? Someone needs to be the boss ? Matthews wrist is a major concern!
Dubas agent: “yeah, we are thinking more money, say double and more autonomy, like how about absolute discretion on roster moves.
Shanahan: that’s a large ask but let me ponder it.
Dubas agent: oh and one other small clause, Kyle wants to choose the the goal song. He thinks that “ you make me feel brand new “ is tired and dated.
Shanahan makes the the fart sound followed by the on hold elevator music in agents ear as shanny starts calling around to unemployed GM’s
Overall I feel that its the players who should be shouldering most of the blame.
Dubas should have taken a pay cut for doing nothing
I'm not a Leafs fan but I do see what's happening here and I'd like to throw in an outside opinion for you guys. I have been around long enough to see the Leafs try EVERYTHING and in my view, they are basically just running around in circles at this point. I don't think Kyle Dubas was a good choice for GM and for proof of that, I offer this; Kyle Dubas will very likely never have a GM position in the NHL again. To me that means that he was not someone who should have been running such an important organization. I do think that the pressure in Toronto is not fair or even reasonable and it is a big part of the problem (but that is another story). The best any NHL team can do is draft well, put together the best team possible and then give them as many shots as possible at a Cup run. Toronto has had a really good team for a few years now and they've not had much success in the playoffs, but what can they really do?? They're not going to be able to move Marner or Matthews and get fair value back and despite how things ended this year, I still think goaltending is more of an issue than anyone is talking about right now. I think they would have been better off letting Lamarillo run the club and then just let the existing core have their chances and get them as much help as possible. Face it folks, it's not easy to win a Cup and every year 31 teams go home unhappy.
Shanahan is the President and Alternate Govenor who makes millions of dollars right, why does he dress like he just came out of bed, have some class for the Toronto organization. wear a nice suit and wear a tie, stop dressing like a bum
Cu DUMB Azz
The first thought I had following this season and game 5 loss to the panthers…Dubis is and was a failure, I often joked, (but its no joke) that I could have done better with This team….All the money in the world and no other restritction financially.
Next thing I wish to address, is that on ths show, you all consistantly say, "The leafs lost to Florida"., and I cant believe they lost to florida…I believe everyone said that once or twice, but you cannot continue this language into the off season and next year, if you wish to be taken seriously…The Panthers are playing like champions right now, but, they are only half way there yet ! Good show!.
F@%& it. They should trade Matthews.The team will still make the playoffs, home ice means nothing and they wont miss him in the playoffs except his moustache and the meg meme. Even do a sign and trade, get good players and get back draft picks and build along side with that. You wont get the same value from the other 2.
Lol u guys are clueless, sure Tavares is getting slower but he is a ppg player
The culture of the Leafs are known to not be accountable, its good to see in a president
Straight forward talk. I don't care who is in "Management" anymore. Wake me up in the 3 round of the 2024 Playoffs.
BTW: the TO media seems easy. Just win!
Our father which art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory for ever amen
Use the lords prayer as i just left pray to lord jesus christ😮 if you feel scared or lonely or unhappy or if you want a relationship with him below is the lords prayer to use
I’m so sick and tired of people siding with Shanny. Dubas was the talent. The talent left. Now all we have is an ego maniac, trump loving, decades long failure. So stupid.
I understand that you may be expressing your REAL opinions, however you both come across as apologists for leafs organization. Are you employees?
Hearing the body of work reiterated, its true there were more than a few misses. I still think Dubas made some great moves also. I did like and trust him as the GM, but am excited about having new eyes on the subject.
..with the over payment to Mathews and Marner….no way to be successful..move these gutless losers and spend the cap wisely on layers with intestinal fortitude.
As usual Leafs managed to stack other teams with good players giving up 1st round picks for players a year or 2 from retirement and seen better days. I'm 89 so I can say this back in my day the Leafs iced almost the same team yearly except for 1/2 changes, and were winners those guys wanted to play had heart now it's where can I get the most $s.Back in the day players worked for the summer driving truck for Smyth " See Smyth for Sand"
Cya Kyle dont let the door hit ya on the arse onthe way out
Core 4 contracts not the best
Bell and Rogers vetoed the extension last summer, nothing Shanahan could do. Who knows what Dubas was thinking.. you don't get an extra bonus or premium for having stress on the domestic front. Toronto is a tough market for sure, but if you're not up to it, move on elsewhere. Very strange card for Dubas to play in public no less. We have not heard from Dubas (may not ever happen), so trying to reserve judgement, but this looks bad on him right now. He'll wind up somewhere else for next season. This won't really affect that. Won't be Calgary, they're about to announce Conroy as the new GM.
He took 3 questions, there is no transparency with Shanny
Auston Matthews would be just a guy in any other franchise. He ain't leading any team to a cup.
The most prestigious in North America lmao, the Americans don't care about hockey , you get 25,000 fans to a high school football game in Texas , you win the Stanley Cup and it's on the 3rd page after womens college basketball
How can you be accepted as an intelligent, smart, competent GM or President when you give 4 players 50% of the Cap……………… This is not Baseball with NO CASP restrictions, when The Yankees have 350 million cap and the poor teams are under 60 million.
Most of the ' Dubas ' fans have never played a game of competitive hockey in their lives.
Leafs fans are so arrogant lol. This org and this fanbase aren't anything special. Mostly it smells like failure
