Deja Two

I hear the next Leafs GM will either be Max or Skalapy! 🤣

He'd get his son Danny Cleary to build it.

Done. 🤣

I think he’s dont a great job getting talent, the team has failed him not the other way around.

I also hate the “stubborn” excuse. Babcock wasn’t stubborn either, he had a way of doing things and stuck to it.

That’s what you pay a coach or GM to do, stick to their plan and make the tough decisions. If we wanted a GM that was easily influenced by fans we would be (frank)ed.
- Santo_44

His "plan", 4 forwards/40 M, has NEVER been successful. It's so (frank)ing dumb it's never even been tried before. And it was put into place with the assumption of a rising cap. To pigheadedly continue this way with a flat cap is not "sticking to your guns". It's idiotic, and inflexible. And I'm being charitable here.

Your manlove for this guy is irrational. But hey, he too, will be on the market come spring time looking for opportunities.

kenny is stuck 20 years in the past with his love for vet players.
39 is 29 to him

This is not about where kadri's game is at now. It's about the return Dubas got at the time. Barrie was the wrong player, a player the coach wanted no part of, on the wrong (expiring) contract. Terrible (frank)ing deal.
- fifty__missions

Dubas had tried to get Brodie first but Kadri said no.

Also you have no idea who else was available and if that team liked Kadri enough. Trades are difficult.

I think its a wash of a trade but not a clear loss or win.

The trade did not need to happen at that moment.

You won't be done with them. You will be cheering for a new regime. Look at their division. They are not making it past the first round and may not even make the playoffs. Shanahan, Dubas, Keefe will all be gone.
- Interloper

If that team doesn't make the playoffs should be a whole lot more than just them gone.

Still remember that time the leafs were supposed to trade Matthews for OEL.

Cameron Whynot (D) taken by CGY in the 3rd round (was the Leafs pick given away in the Campbell deal).

What a name!

Yet... you dont address the first part where Dubas tried to get someone else which was your original complaint.

Now he’s doing it to Oilers fans.

OEL is garbage now apparently.

Was the shiny new toy before he signed his deal.

How dare you.
