Has there been an actual statement from the Leafs about Lamoriello?
- Aetherial

Yes, from Shanahan I think.

Son of a....Really?

Fack, that sucks..

*Unless Tavares negotiated his own trade to London...10 years ago. Should be a lock to re-sign now with Hunter on the Island. Wait, what?

Yep. He has officially been announced now.

Snow has 4 years of contract to burn still too so not a given he'll be moved out.
- Deeps27

Apparently Lou has "full authority."

Snow will be fired before the draft.

bergevin and chia for assistant gm's.

tanner can be head scout. will never watch a game, just base everything off of charts.

It's a great opportunity for him to catch a real NHL game eventually

I'm guessing for his next contract, he will structure it like Jack Eichel's.. Along with being team captain, Tavares will also be the head coach, the GM, and the director of player personnel.

So who will be candidates for assistant GM's for the Maple Leafs?
- Archaic

Ron Francis and Chuck Fletcher would be good...

I think they asked to have the first go at drawing up plans for the new arena at Belmont too.
Either way, it's a lock he stays after the chat with Lou last week and especially now that Hunter will be the GM...

Tanner would try to trade for the player he created in NHL 13.

I hope they fire him AT THE DRAFT! Let him go up to announce the pick and have Lou waiting with the ax on the podium.

meanie

I have faith in Shanahan.

He out of nowhere brought in Lou and Babcock. Pretty confident the stories being said were Babcock was going to Buffalo and last minute he shocked everyone and came to Toronto. Nobody also saw Lou coming. I don't remember if Hunter was seen coming or otherwise but it looked like Shanahan brought in a good group of guys. I bet he can do it again considering there's more than 4 smart hockey guys.

It sucks losing lou and Hunter but it's the way it goes.

Don't let Fletcher make trades...or negotiate deals....

So same deal as his Dad...sounds right. Hire him for his Rolodex.

Do we get any compensation for Lou? Or eventually for Hunter when he leaves?
