Rossi on Kyper saying the Pens job is Dubas' job if he wants it. Says it is more like Kyle interviewing the Pens rather than the Pens interviewing him. Good Luck Sid.

That's why Dubas says his demand of autonomy of decision appears to be "reasonable" to himself (per his public statement yesterday). If you don't give your job to me I can get it somewhere else.

He probably had his eyes on the pens' job all along (given his personal relationship with those in the organization, as many have mentioned). The last minute contractual demand is his way of quitting on Toronto, rather than a naive and idiotic negotiating move.

Perhaps even the family narrative is just to justify his decision to leave the "highly pressured" Toronto market place.

He left this place a mess, probably didn’t want to make the decisions that needed to be made. So like any weasel does, he makes lame excuses and quits.

Dubas will work with Sullivan and provide more analytics which the FSG wants. He met with Sid last night so he has a good idea what is what. Not the worst move after Hextall killed the Pens last year.

So could/would the leafs block him from participating in their draft?

Well thanks to Kyle's scorched earth approach to draft picks dealt away its shouldn't be a problem. Hard to outscoup a team that has very little draft picks.

But since you brought it up, do you know Pittsburgh owns Leafs 7th rounder this year becasue Dubas traded it to Pens to acquire Jared McCann, so he could gift him to Seattle to protect Justin Holl.. There is a possiblity Kyle just traded a Leafs pick to his future self and will be making a selection with it afterall. :wg:

Certainly is beginning to look very plausible.

Kyle Dubas quotes:

“It’s Toronto or nowhere.”
“I couldn’t put my family through that.”
“You won’t see me popping up anywhere else.”

How this guy still has supporters is beyond me. What a scumbag. At least be honest about the process. And don't say things changed when he was let go. He knew very well at his presser that that might be a possibility.
