Great...

 

[Jozay]

Treliving loves those mid tier free agents, the ones you should never sign.

Small markets have trouble attracting the big fish.

 

[Leaf Fans]

I don't think I have had less confidence in upper Leaf management since the Burke days after the Kessel trade.

Burke did hire Treliving as GM in Calgary.

LarryT is always involved in everything. lol

You know I hear a lot of talk about the name on the back vs the crest on the front. Me personally, I support the corporation number on the ownership documents. Whatever happens, the important part to me is that MLSE is a profitable investment for Bell and Rogers, growing their brand’s goodwill and ESG score, and that the owners have a fun work atmosphere.

How long does Armstrong have left in his contract?
Bring in Treliving with Pridham on that length of deal. If we win, party.

If not, torch it all and start over with Armstrong.

3 years

 

[capfit9]

Dubas already said the process was too slow, this would be adding an additional approval in the process.


Ahh gotcha.

Too slow for DUBAS, not everyone is Dubas

 

[Trapper]

3 years

Perfect time to win or start again.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Or he gets added to the long list of ex Leafs lifting the cup over their head. I think Pittsburg is a bad destination for Dubas. But a good young team with new owners willing to spend to the max down the 401 ? Battle of Ontario could be pretty fun

He'd be like

[horner]

If Shanahan doesn't want to trade any of the core 4 why do we need an experienced GM.

Just get the best candidate or is he afraid of the contracts for mathews marner and Nylander .

Matheau Darche from what I here has been in on every trade descussions in TB.

Army can replace Shanny. Douglas Armstrong (born September 24, 1964) is a Canadian professional ice hockey executive, currently the President of hockey operations and general manager for the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League (NHL). He is also a former general manager of the NHL's Dallas Stars.

Kyle will have to buy a ticket to touch this cup.

88 and 34 need new contracts. We saw what happened the last time a rookie handled their negotiations. Then again, they will give 34 what he asks for so you might be right. LOL

 

[Peace Frog]

If you look at dubas moves and you were president wouldnt you maybe get involved as well?

If Shanny felt the need to get involved, then you’d have to think he didn’t have faith in his GM. Why would he have wanted to re-sign Dubas?

The best boss i ever had stepped in on me a couple times to veto but with perspective and experience

I have more respect for him than anyone i have ever worked with

 

[Rude Dog]

So...the Leafs have narrowed their GM search down from 1 to 1?

Shanahan better write the salary in ink.

 

[Clark4Ever]

How would you feel if the Leafs hired Treliving and he replaced Keefe with Sutter?

Not going to happen. One of the reasons Treliving left Calgary is because ownership insisted on keeping Sutter.

 

[Clark4Ever]

Long term deals to aging middle of the lineup players kill rosters, especially when they’re overpaid and have trade protection. 9/10 times you see a roster go from a consistent playoff team to a mismanaged bubble team, the previous offseason or two almost always saw that team sign several 30 year old grinders to a 6x6 or worse. We haven’t had that issue since Marleau, I guess Murray is the closest?

We already went through that during the Burke/Nonis era. Hopefully history will not repeat itself.

3 years

Just in time to sign McDavid as a UFA.

Billionaires respect billionaires.

 

[34]

And all that success, dont forget about all that success

hmmmm, Yeah Tkachuk going to look Really good hoisting that cup.

Dubas was mediocre. The time to fire him was after the Montreal collapse. Firing him now, with all these contracts coming up for renewal is a massive cluster. If this blows up it's all on Shanahan, and he needs to be shown the door if Matthews doesn't re-sign, or they get an awful return for him.

Matthews is gone and the return will be trash.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Someone came up with a more extensive list of questionable contracts from Treliving.

This fanbase would kill to have Kadri come back here at 7x7.

 

[TheDoldrums]

This fanbase would kill to have Kadri come back here at 7x7.

Would easily be our worst contract.

 

[The Masters]

Just because you have to overpay because you are in a small market and in Canada, doesn't mean you have to give out those contracts. We are going to spin our wheels even worse with Brad

 

[usernamezrhardtodo]

I don't. Usually it is the GM that hires the coach.

It seems like management took Sutter's side after the season when it came down to Brad and his coach. They might have wanted him in the first place...but then again...Brad has a spotty record in picking coaches...so who knows.
