2026-27 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion | Official: Sundin & Chayka to lead front office

[L K]

I think the biggest thing about Shapiro is think of him less as the Xs and Ox guy and more of the guy who spearheaded the renovations to the training facilities in Dunedin....the retrofits of Buffalo during COVID, and the revamping of the Skydome. I think Shapiro is more of what you want in a Team President/CEO where he's a sports guy but is more of the business thinking guy.

I'm fine with that.

I do think there needs to be a discussion on how the Jays on field performance has played out over the last decade despite a pretty consistent top 10 or better payroll but its the business side of the Jays that Shapiro has excelled at.

He's about 30 GP away from being 6th all time in GP for the Leafs
49 pts away from being top 10 in scoring for the Leafs all time
11 goals away from being 3rd in goal scoring for Leafs dmen all time
43 assists away from being 5th in assists for Leafs all time
He's 2nd in assists for Leafs dmen all time well behind Salming

He is 1st all time in playoff goal scoring for Leafs dmen all time
3 pts away from being 1st in playoff scoring for Leafs dmen all time
6 pts away from being 1st in playoff assists for Leafs dmen all time
2nd all time in playoff ppg for Leafs dmen all time

He's had quite a run

Who was the last Leaf to have a significant career and spend it all with the Leafs? Dave Keon?
