Media Availability - End Of Season (2022)

[bbgobie]

Exactly.
Certainly not cutting his teeth on a supposedly championship-caliber team. Kind of like investing tens of millions of dollars into producing the very best F1 car then turn around and give the keys to a rookie driver in the hope that 10 years from now, when he learns how to drive, they'll win a race.

Umm... Thats actually pretty how much F1 works.
A driver develops in your program, they might spend a year or 2 on your jr team before being promoted to the top team.
They are not world champions by the time they are promoted to the top team. You think they have the potential to be a top driver and the join your main team and continue to develop there.

Keefe wasn't some random guy sitting on a couch that the Leafs hoped would learn how to coach over 20 years.

He interviewed budenholzer


Probably bc you did a shitty job and failed.

I think what is said is they are doing good work here still.

they bhaven't won a round in 6 years, not a cup, a ROUND

that's failure

We have a direction, president, management, coaching, and franchise player on the same page.

We also have a top line, top pair, and a starting goalie that needs a contract.

Imagine if one of these things were off, it would be a problem.

Ppl might not see it right now, but this is a good thing.

 

[mikeyz]

That goes on the back of the shirt so people know we mean business when exiting the playoffs.

We almost beat them!!!!

We're gaining respect!!!!!

BOW DOWN AND PRAISE ME!!!!!!!!!!

One massive troll job at this point. 6 year to cook this prank

 

[Trapper]

Need to also change team's song to Aretha Franklin's "Respect".

R E S P E C T that’s what losing means to me!
Everyone sing along…

Add that to Maple Leaf Soundtrack of:

Aerosmith: Same old Song and Dance
The Doors: The End
The Who: Won’t get Fooled Again

I didn't watch the Press Conference but I'm assuming Campbell didn't pose any of these questions to Management?

 

[Cams]

Member Jared McCann? We had him. We didn't want him. We wanted Justin Holl.

Ah.... Jared McCann would have certainly sealed the deal............?

Noone needed to. The 3 amigos made themselves look foolish all on their own

 

[TheShape]

Pressers are just cliche city so what does it matter? I don't care what they say, I just want us to start the next season with a solid #1 goalie.

The organization is literally setting records for losing. It might not be a bad time to go a little bit off script here.

Not if the 'same page' is the wrong page.

 

[Mopar]

Whatever happens, Dubas and Keefe better make the most of this opportunity as Head Coach and General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Because they will never work with an NHL organization again after this debacle.

 

[The Masters]

Agreed

 

[MagicalRazor]

I hate what Shanahan said,: “We’re not going to make changes simply for the sake of making changes.”

Changes need to be made its not for the sake of making changes it for the fact that the leafs are actually doing the definition of insanity

Albert Einstein: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

ITS NOT WORKING!!!!!!!!!! Some changes need to be made it's simple as that

wow

 

[Gary Nylund]

I wouldn't say anything because if I failed at my job as much as Dubas and Keefe have failed at their jobs, there would be nothing to say because I wouldn't have a job because I'd be fired

so would you and everybody else

and rightly so might I add

I thought Dubas did his job pretty well, same goes for Keefe.

Changes are made every year, this year will be no different.

 

[Trapper]

Agreed

We’ve already paid everyone like 3 time champs, might as well continue the fantasy.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Not if the 'same page' is the wrong page.

Is it the wrong page?

They identified where they were weak:
1) Special Teams
2) Consistency
3) Killer instinct

They are committed to looking at making changes to make the team better and not for the sake of making change. No votes of confidence for the core was given.

What more could you want from the group?

Out for blood, no unity from the group running the team...that doesn't sound like a recipe for success does it?

 

[Cams]

I'd much rather have this team than to have to relive the '80s again. Talk about records for losing...... More than half the posters on here crying don't know what losing is really like, and I suspect many weren't even born yet when losing was a part of day to day Leafs fans lives

 

[ShaneFalco]

Not if the 'same page' is the wrong page.

Actually better to have different viewpoints and people who will challenge you rather than sticking to a model that fails and a yes-man coach
We don't have a starting goalie - from all reports he is going to price himself out. Even if he doesn't not sure how happy we should be with a guy who can't stay healthy

 

[Shooter2x]

Well damn. This presser actually made me angry. I'm pro keeping Shanny and Dubas but now I don't really care what happens.

 

[capfit9]

For a front office that relies on Data/Analytics to inform their decision making they seem to "feel" that this team is somehow going to breakthrough ............THE FIRST ROUND !!

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Changes are made every year, this year will be no different.

they have yet to win a round, not a cup, A ROUND, we aren't talking about a team that has been to 2 conference finals or a cup final and just haven't gotten over the hump, they haven't won A ROUND.

54 wins and 115 points is great but if doesn't mean jack shit if you can't win a round

that's called failure
