It will be a very interesting year, to say the least.
Dubas is gone, which should please the Dubas-haters.
Shanahan and Treliving sem inclined to keep Matthews, Tavares, Marner and Nylander anyway, which was one of the main complaints about Dubas. See how that works out.
There will be constant comparisons between everything to do with Pittsburgh and everything to do with Toronto. An instant rivalry, which should be intriguing.
Any player or personnel moves by Pittsburgh involving former Leafs or Leafs' staff will draw massive scrutiny.
Heaven forbid there should be any trades between Pittsburgh and Toronto. The Earth would move.
Even if Dubas does not acquire any former Leafs, that too will draw interest and comment.
And finally, hopefully, the Leafs could win the Stanley Cup, which would top everything.
Much to look forward to!
