If they do, it would be prime Leafs for Oilers to win the cup next season with McDavid taking 80% of his draws in his own zone.

Sorry for anyone to lose their job on a personal level. Delighted from a personal point of view cos it might make the Leafs watchable again.

He’d probably be a decent start them in the offensive zone against the other teams bottom line or two so you can overmatch them 3rd line winger. But he’s paid way too much for that.

And what are we doing at centre? Without Matthews we have *no* centres (Maybe Tavares as a third line centre and obviously 4th line can be a role player)

I wouldn’t. I’m just conditioned to having Treliving and Berube in charge 😂

Maybe now?

A Tuch addition could potentially lead to a Knies for top line D trade I kind of feel.

It’s not what or who I’d have picked. Not the setup I’d have gone with. There’s obvious reservations about the past. But I’ve actually kind of come round to giving them a chance/hoping it works out. I actually thought both of them spoke quite well on some of the more in depth interviews too...

The two I’d look at moving would be Rielly and Nylander. Obviously you’re hampered by their no movement clauses. I keep the number 1 pick, bring in what I can for those 2 and as other have said use cap,space to go big on the likes of Raddysh and other FA defence who are better at moving the...

Yeh, all I really mean is not to get too cute. We’ve lucked out to get the 1st overall pick, never mind not lose the 5th pick. Let’s not get overly smart annd extravagant about it.

Remember 10 years ago Matthew’s was the consensus number 1 pick but there was loads of debate and op-eds arguing to got for Laine instead. Let’s not do all that again.

Don’t ever let anyone tell you there’s no reward for utter incompetence.

They're losing the pick, don't worry. It is foretold.

Maybe it'll strengthen the links between the Leafs and Wendys? Is that a positive?

Emphasis my own. This bit scares me. But also I recognise he isn’t going to tell the media he’s firing the guy. So I hope it’s just that professionalism.

I’m watching them on Kyper and Bourne now. Chayka described Berube as a “great coach” but did say he wanted to analyse things before making any decisions on changes which is a fair answer and at least isn’t an unequivocal support of him. It’s not the pairing I’d have picked for the roles as...

What’s Aki Berg up to? Since that seems to be the hiring template. Random guys from the past.

Here’s the killer line:

Sigh. Well. Maybe they can curry some early favour by sacking Berube as their first act/announcement.

I’m trying to retain a small sense of hope that after all the leaks the upper management have decided to feed fake info internally and let it leak to hide their true intentions of who they actually plan to hire. And then when the announcement comes it’ll be a load of unexpected amazing names...
