Except for when his team is playing in the finals or the first few days after they win, is there ever a time a good GM isn't "working on a move"?

Answer: Yes. Who? Answer: Treliving.
I am told that he likes to do most of his work in the offseason, and only do minor tinkering at the trade deadline. Um...like most GMs.

If he's "like most GMs", then the answer to "Who" should be "most GMs".Answer: Yes. Who? Answer: Treliving.

They may not be actively in the middle of a deal at any time, but I'm sure most if not all GMs are always thinking about making their team better.

$350k in the minors
That is a decent number for living in Calgary.
Still get a really nice place for less than $1.5mm
If you want a 35 drive to the arena ...
in the city probably probably around 30 minutes

I’d be surprised if a guy on a two way 1 year contract would be looking to buy a house.Jarred Tinordi | 1yrs x 800K (CGY)

Yeah, probably rent, but point remains $350k is good money in Calgary. Like O&G workers.

Just reading about CBJ scrambling to find a couple players and salary to hit the minimum cap. Not usually giving a damn about any other teams hard times, but you gotta be pulling for CBJ a bit this year right?

They were going to be a near bottom of the league team with Gaudreau. They have a lot of years to go before they get better.
Yup. Full underdog story. Not holding out much hope but you gotta pull for them is all. Everyone loves a miracle story.

NR + JT

Jenner
That should help them for this year, and maybe save JT $1mm in taxes.

Thanks but no thanks on the Jenner front. One of those guys who has been on the Leaf Nation radar for so long he's turned into a 13 year old guy with a lot of mileage and wear and tear.

Well he is 3 years younger than JT, and wouldn't be an "ex-" Leafs Captain hanging around AM's reign.
ToneDog
56 years and counting. #FireTheShanaClan!
JT to CBJ makes a whole lot of sense if he was willing to waive. They get the $11m cap hit but only owe him $1m for the year and JT get #1C minutes so he can get the points he needs to get him to the HOF. JT can resign here in a year.
Just when you thought Tavares was a cap dump, he becomes a trade chip with value in a trade with a desperate CBJ team.

JT and MM for Monahan, Werenski and 2nd rounder.
Then trade Lilly to another team for a mid 6 forward.

Kyle Dubas has hired a number of Leafs' front office staff since taking over in Pittsburgh and it appears as though the Pens GM and President may be at it again.
It didn't take long for Jason Spezza to join Kyle Dubas in Pittsburgh and since then, the Leafs have lost a number of front office staff to the Penguins. Dubas' biggest acquisition of Leafs staff members came back in July, when he scooped up Wes Clark, prying the scouting guru from Toronto. Now, per reports, the Leafs have lost another valuable member of the organization.
According to Around the Horn, the Leafs have now parted ways with amateur scout Victor Carneiro and one can only assume that Dubas is behind the move.
Carneiro was the Director Player Personnel for the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds reporting to Dubas before joining the Leafs, once again under Dubas. Dubas is loyal to his people, but many believe he is too loyal, given the lack of NHL success he has had as a general manager.
Kyle Dubas to Poach Yet Another Member of the Leafs' Organization?

Yes, change for change is a thing.
JT gets out of the CRA grasp ... and for those who will only accept him back with a Spezza deal it should be a huge win. He isn't signing a Spezza deal.
NR doesn't want to be playing for the Leafs, so his distraction is gone.
Leafs free up around $9mm in space.
