  1. Because having a first time GM worked out so well for the past 9 seasons?

    MLSE has deep pockets. Overpay to get a PROVEN GM into the seat.

  2. a totally F'D organization and get ready for a total rebuild.. not even sure if we have Matthew"s and Marner sticking around and certainly Keefe is next to go and Dubas and Keefe will return to eliminate leaf's in a playoff series …

  3. Brendan shanahan should’ve been fired. Good going Toronto, we just parted ways with a top 5 gm in the league. Rebuild time.

  4. Did anyone else get motion sickness from the revolving infographic ? Felt like the c.n. Tower restaurant sped up. At least now I am prepared to fly to the international space station

  5. Not Dubas’ fault that $40M+ took the week off vs Panthers. He’s just a scape goat. He’s a good GM

  6. I love the grounded reality of this channel!!,Despite the recession, I no longer depend on Government Grant since i earn $60,000 every 27days.

  7. Brad Treliving, Stan Bowman, Joe Quennville? When did Darren Dreger become the errand boy for the old boys club?

  8. 10 years of the Shanaplan. 10 years and 1 playoff round win. Dubas was Shanahan's guy, and look where that has gotten the Leafs. The rot started above Dubas's head. Keep Shanahan. Give his plan 10 more years, maybe they will get to the 3rd round by then?

  9. The Leafs should dismiss Brendan Shanahan. There's a saying that a GM is lucky to replace a coach once and really lucky if they get to do so twice. Since 2014, he oversaw Nonis, Lamoriello, and Dubas. At some point, he should accept responsibility too.

  10. It's time to focus on what the fans love, not what Auston Matthews loves. Tenacity and grit is needed, not love. Omg this generation of cotton balls.

  11. Shanahan is clueless. the fact that he does not have a plan B is disturbing.. He could have has someone waiting in the wings by now if Dufas did not work out.. But win lose or draw, Dubie was gonna come back.. the intense heat got to Shenanigans and he had to fold

  12. I get leaf fans are pessimistic they have every reason to be. MLSE should fire Shanahan pursue Dougie Gilmour for President and let Dougie find the next GM

  13. Thats who i want. A gm who trades Tkachuk for a guy who now gets 60 pts. Maybe he could turn Matthews into another guy who is capable of 60 pts.

  14. Shanny's first call should be to the Wings and see if Kris Draper is interested in being a GM. He's a four-time Cup winner and Selke winner. Since he retired he's been learning under Ken Holland and now Steve Yzerman as Director of Amateur Scouting. He also grew up near Toronto.

  15. shanahandjob doest care if they win or lose as long as the owners make lots of money straight from the harold ballard school of ownership
