Brad Treliving is doing a great job.

[Dale Gribble]

In thinking about it over the weekend, even if the team were to move on from Shanahan and Treliving who would the Replacement be ?

Very little out there, especially with experience. As most of the good potential hires are already with other teams, and I would be surprised if say someone like George McPhee as an example would be willing to leave Vegas.

 

[GoonieFace]

Maybe we are cursed

Dewar is playing better than Laughton

Timmins playing better offensively than Carlo

Since their trades

It’s a lot different playing for a contending team, than a team that has no chance to make the playoffs.

Dewar is trash, and Timmons is meh at best.

We are contending alright. For that early tee off time by the end of April

I meant contending for the playoffs lol, the cup, not so much

Well, looks like Florida first round and early exit. The fans told them not to re run it, now they will be fired.

I think tre is more of a yes man buddy of shan

If not for Marner's NMC, our GM Treliving would have acquired Mikko Rantanen the big powerforward in trade.

It would have been his team defining moment, but Marner prevented from happening by enforcing his no trade.

No, if Treliving had his choice Marner would be re-signed, that is what was reported.

His second choice was trading him.

You need to start following the team more.

I hope it’s a public flogging to go along with the firing

 

[leafsfan5]

if there's one thing Brad Treliving can do, it's find good RHD

Hamilton
Hamonic (when he was good)
Tanev
Andersson
Weegar
Tanev (again)
Carlo

I would say it’s more Shanahans and MLSE choice to re-sign Marner.

That's great, but when two sides' numbers are pretty far apart (or else why wouldn't he be signed if he wanted him), it's really a moot point.

To me, it's just posturing, so either doesn't seem like the bad guy, particularly from the Marner/Ferris side.

If Marner wants to stay and Trelving wants him, then sign the Rantanen deal.

Marner doesn't want to negotiate in season, this is what was reported unless something has changed, are there even numbers?

Not saying anyone is in the right/wrong here, just going off reports.

I would say it’s more Shanahans and MLSE choice to re-sign Marner.

Just going off what Friedman was reporting... re-signing Marner would be one of Treliving's youngest signings, so it might not be his choice, but it is what Friedman said.

Why doesn't he?

Nylander did; this is the hometown hero, after all...

It doesn't appear that they have started negotiating, how could they be far apart?

I do agree they should have had this wrapped up by now.

 

[LeafEgo]

Marner is unsigned, Tre asks him to waive (perhaps the second time), Marner is still unsigned, and this is all because Marner wants to remain a Maple Leaf and Tre wants to keep him in Toronto - even over a consensus top three winger in the league.

The connective tissue is simply that 'Marner doesn’t want to negotiate in season'.

Nevermind that he has a team that does this for him, it's just too distracting. They love each other too much.

I dunno, maybe Tre never had any interest in signing Marner from the beginning until the playoffs were done, and has kept an eye out for a possible return on asset, both last offseason and at the trade deadline.

Treliving hasn't even been here 2 years he's not going anywhere

They haven't even begun talking by the sounds of it and honestly that's OK the focus needs to be on this season, contract talks can wait until the season is over.

 

[horner]

Our goaltending is set
Stolarz was an incredible pickup
We will us him as a trade chip inext season fora a Center

He has finally rebuilt the defence and for the first time we will have this group together for 3 yrs.
We finally have a top prospect in Danford that could be ready by 2027-2028 season

Next he will strengthen our C position

 

[leafs in five]

I wish he would have used the 1st round pick and our best non-NA prospect to strengthen our C position

 

[notDatsyuk]

They can't. They are not Berube type players. It's the same scenario as truculent Burke and run and gun Wilson. Square peg round hole. They keep doing the same stupid shit.

So they are not Berube type players, or Burke type players, or Wilson type players, or Keefe type players.

Who type of players are they?

 

[Suntouchable13]

All this focus on D, and the Leafs currently have allowed the 2nd most goals in the East among the current playoff teams. Not great.

Rielly

 

[notbias]

Rielly

Or, hear me out.. maybe the D is better on paper than in practice because everyone is on the wrong side of their prime.

We have got to have the oldest D core.

Most signed long-term too... not great.

Or you can blame coaching if you prefer.

-----

Both these stats are a minimum of 10 games over the last 3 playoffs.

Rielly is 5th in PPG for D, ahead of Hughes, Josi, Carlson, Heiskanen, McAvoy, Doughty, Burns, Andersson, Theodore, Montour, etc.
Only Hedman, Fox, Makar, and Bouchard are ahead.

Rielly is 2nd in GPG for D.

The Rielly hate is insane when everyone complains about playoffs nonstop.
