"In for a penny, in for a pound"

I’ll bet the Leafs will need to get another team involved if they want to make this happen. Maybe Buffalo?

Sundin’s ’welcome to the family’ sounded like Don Corleone’s seal of approval … lol

So you’re saying I don’t need to take down my signed and framed Rielly jersey just yet ?

Terrific game!… not so good outcome. Still 3 more shots at this. They’ll get it done.

Thanks for the breakdown CW. We’re off to see them tonight…hopefully to win it all !

That’s who I’d be asking for. A bunch of mid to low first-round picks gets you what.. a chance to find another Knies type player ?

Thanks for all the INFO cw. Bought my tickets for game 4 . Exhibition Place is an absolute zoo with the World Cup going on at the same time, but it should be worth the hassle.

Cowan is CLUTCH!

Hire him! This could be their new goal song .lol

I know Chayka said Matthews had zero influence on this move but I can’t help believe him and Sundin heard something during their 10 days of meetings with staff that would indicate otherwise. Namely, that Matthews wasn’t happy with the coaching. I’m less likely to think Matthews game will improve...

I agree. And now the Leafs are in a great position to make this happen. Trade him for a high draft pick and draft the top notch defenseman we’ve been longing for for years to help built the team nucleus the proper way this time… with McKenna as the centrepiece

This has already aged well. Lol

I can’t find anything stating the length of his contract.

I wonder if Chayka is just a placeholder for a year or two until .. a) Sundin gains more experience or … b) a more prominent GM with more experience and a better track record becomes available EDIT: or … c) Chayka passes the audition with flying colours

I’m willing to see what this new management team can do before I grab my pitchfork. Lol. We often get an unexpected and pleasant surprise when everyone is in agreement that things will only get worse. Maybe this season was rock bottom. We’ll find out soon enough.

I’ll say the same thing I said they day he walked out the door… Why didn’t they just keep Dubas? Yeah.. I know it’s a worthless opinion now , but if we’d kept him and let Shanahan go instead we’d be in a much better spot right now . We’d probably have another 1st round this year and next year or...

Farewell Joe Bowen !

Well… that’s the end of a very disappointing season, with no playoffs. The only promising take away MIGHT be a top 5 pick. That won’t make up for a lost season…but it would at least be something.
