End of Season Pressers (Monday May 15)

[capfit9]

If shanny is not speaking today, Doofas might be cooked

So does that make Matthews the one wristed man?

This is starting to resemble Twin Peaks.

 

[the squared circle]

for all of you waiting for this to start, don't forget Yuskevich's words of wisdom - "the only honest person in the organization, is Carlton the bear".

 

[Mess]

they didn’t start on time. Oh the irony.

and ousted early out of the PC as a result.

Only 1 guy spoke, and so the Leafs nearly got swept out of the press conference. Parallels the Leafs playoff season quite accurately on how it ended.

 

[Mugzy97]

So currently there is no link to wait correct?

 

[MCR74]

So now it's at the end of player interviews? Nice...

I can only imagine what Marner and Matthews have to say for themselves.

Crucially, Tanenbaum & Bell are on the same side of most major decisions. Rogers are on the opposite side, on their own.

So, if they want Shanahan fired / wholesale changes etc., they'll get what they want.

I believe the Rogers kids wanted Shanahan out in the past, but it was Tanenbaum + Bell that pushed to keep him in place recently. Not sure what that means now moving forward. Certainly feels like the goalposts have moved.

Interesting I would have assumed it was the media corps vs Larry

I think they all may be cooked

 

[EK47]

Nylander going to the Worlds is well played. He gets to keep playing hockey and misses media clear out day lol.

Hey, sorry swede dropping in. Did Nylander say this?

 

[Trapper]

Yeah. Sorry to say. But Gio isn’t all that relevant.

It’s the Leafs. Expect one thing, get the complete opposite.

 

[SprDaVE]

ROR is talking

 

[horner]

Where are the insiders something must have leaked.
Bobby Mac we need you

This organization does not deserve the fanbase they have. Half the league couldn't get this participation in playoff GDT, let alone a presser.

We really need to have our heads examined.

 

[ToneDog]

I'd love to see the mental gymnastics those that wish him well will have to do if he's on a division rival

The same guys who turned on Lou won't turn on Dubas. Interesting.

 

[horner]

ROR is talking

Hope he comes back 5 mil

 

[rocketman588]

ROR is talking

Woah someone with actual accountability about his play

 

[SprDaVE]

 

[Tak7]

ROR is talking

Any links here?

 

[Throw More Waffles]

ROR is talking

I like it. Immediate accountability on HIMSELF. Not the nonsense like "I had my chances". "Bad puck luck." "We believe in this team."

I will be so disgusted if the core pull that nonsense again.

No incomponent organization could survive 56 years of futility without a dedicated fan base.

 

[rocketman588]

The delay is just because they're finalizing the Holl and kerfoot extensions

Can you feel the passion

 

[Trapper]

Hope he comes back 5 mil

If he really is disappointed he will come back on a discount to make amends.

From my understanding, part of the Bell-Rogers ownership agreement is that they always vote together. This was to prevent Tanenbaum from teaming up with one against the other and part of the reason, Larry got an ownership bump from 20% to 25%. He gets to be Chair of the MLSE board and Governor but has little, if any, decision making power.

Not a shock that he's the one with the cup

Lol. I could literally hear people’s heads exploding from here if that was the case.
