Frank Seravalli sur JD Bunkis Podcast: « Le truc avec Matt Murray, j’ai entendu ça chuchoté au repêchage, c’est que si Kyle Dubas était toujours en charge des Leafs, ils parlaient d’une prolongation. À qui j’étais comme quoi?! Peut-être qu’ils pensaient au sous-sol des bonnes affaires, mais même dans ce cas, c’est difficile à comprendre. »

This is actually good news for us. Maybe we can trade him back to Pittsburgh now.
He’s talking out of his ass. Didn’t he say something about Brodie being bought out.
Where did this rumor start? It would the worst move Dubas has ever made.
I have a hard time believing that.
I mean, if it truly was bargain bin near league minimum it’s not that hard to fathom. I’m sure plenty of teams would take him as an option at that price.
Even if he was good which he wasn’t …dude has played 38, 27, 20 & 26 games over the last 4 seasons…that is just 38.28% of games despite him being the penciled in starter all 4 seasons…
Even if he was good AND even if he was healthy we already have Samsanov and Woll who can’t be sent down to the AHL anymore.
This is ridiculous. Like it just has to be false.
Seravalli is by far the worst insider in hockey.
Dubas for all his pros and cons was still an NHL gm, and with that comes the fact that he will overvalue HIS guys. He kept Ceci around almost out of spite and protecting Holl and Kerfoot over McCann was an all time blunder. This is the second time this rumours come up, I know it was Kypreos who reported it first but I just don’t know why multiple insiders would report the same thing if there wasn’t some truth to it.
Apparently he listens to the Kypreos and Bourne podcast since the Neanderthal suggested that too.
Maybe at like 2×2, but I don’t see a significant pay there.
I honestly do not believe this for a fleeting second.
Feels like a smear campaign on Dubas.
Trade him to the Penguins then?
I don’t believe this for a second.
Dubas wasn’t perfect but I also don’t see him giving a long term extension to a perpetually injured guy. If anything he seemed to be a guy who would quickly move on from his mistakes
the fact kypreos also mentioned this means this rumour prob has legs.
It would be crazy if it was true, but Dubas does have a boner for anyone connected to the Soo Greyhounds, so it probably is true.
Murray was horrendous, why would they consider keeping him?
Did he go to the Brian Burke school of goaltender management?
There’s no fucking way I believe that. Kyle isn’t that fucking stupid. This sounds more like someone trying to fuck with him. Also this is also the idiot that said Brodie was getting bought out. My morning dumps have more accuracy than whatever comes out of Frank’s mouth.
Whoever is spreading this around is the same person who floated the idea of a TJ Brodie buyout
Good thing Dubas is long gone. That was and would’ve been yet another big mistake by him
Now Treliving has to clean up his mess
And everyone was upset that this guy is gone 🙄
Yaaa …
If that’s true, I’m glad Kyle’s gone.
Any raw feelings about Dubas aside…I’d take this with a huge grain of salt. It was « whispered » (i.e. no proof) and Dubas isn’t here to defend himself anymore. This stinks like rumor mongering for clicks during a slow period in the offseason.
Let him trade for him now then.
I’m not opposed to a league mom or burials deal.
Murray could do Marlies duty or what Kallgren was this year
Good, so maybe Dubas will have the appetite to acquire him.
I’m glad the terrible takes are filtering through the terrible JD Bunkis. Frank’s a pro, he won’t give actual intel to a scrub.
Have people finally learned that Dubas is a snake oil salesman who somehow convinced the best franchise in the league stacked with the top drafted players in the league to give him the purse strings.
The guy produced the highest number of consistently team-unfriendly contracts in the league and 5 game wins in the playoffs in 5 years.
Nepotism, one of the most backwards forms of management in business….was the Dubas MO. And why he went with Murray….and Kyle Clifford….and Nick Ritchie and Jack the crybaby Campbell etc……..
Is there any adult that believes this is an acceptable result? It’s down right shit.
Sounds too stupid to be real but then again…
This has all the makings of a media hack job to make the fanbase happy. Bash the old GM and cover your tracks with qualifyers like “heard whispers”, this is poor journalism. Give me sources or don’t report it.
Should not extend him . Let him walk next year or trade him.
Lol, who needs a goalie when we have Samsanov and Woll on fire! 🔥
Murray’s playing time is as consistent as my daily motivation.
Not saying any validity, but Kyper wrote the same in an article maybe 2 weeks ago?
