- Symba007

The Habs already have his list.
- Champ

The Leafs don't want to release him until after the draft, it's not for the 1st pick...but for everything pick after

I don't know much about him, I just hate the leafs.

Dudley began coaching the next year, 1982–1983, after retiring as a player. He coached in the ACHL, IHL, and AHL, before finally getting a head-coaching job in the NHL with the Buffalo Sabres in the 1989–90 season. While coaching in the IHL, in 1988, he won the Commissioner's Trophy for the Coach of the Year. He coached the Sabres for three seasons before being fired in 1991–92. He then spent the next four seasons coaching three different teams in the IHL, and wouldn't make an NHL coaching appearance again until he was the mid-season replacement for the Florida Panthers in the 2003–04 season. He was the general manager of the Ottawa Senators in the 1998–99 season.

On April 14, 2010, Dudley was named General Manager of the Atlanta Thrashers,[1] replacing Don Waddell, who became club President. Dudley had served as associate general manager for one year under Waddell.

Shortly after settling into his new position, when free agency began on July 1, 2010, Dudley aggressively pursued and obtained four players, including Dustin Byfuglien, and an assistant coach, John Torchetti, from the 2010 Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks.

Dudley was added to the Toronto Maple Leafs management team on June 24, 2011. He is currently director of player personnel with the Leafs

He is a very good evaluator... he is a good guy to have in the front office... I like how they are getting respected "hockey" people...

That's fair.... I am just happy with this addition. It is nice to bring people from outside the organization...

That is completely understandable...

He was only there a year so obviously he does also...

If Parenteau isnt this year's ward, I'll eat my hat.

Donald Audette ring any bells? top 5 in league scoring in a contract year on a bad team, got a $4M per(ish) contract and never lived up to it...

Donald Audette also had a terrible arm injury....

Maple Leafs ‘dynamic’ prospect Leo Komarov hopes to make the jump from KHL...

That is completely understandable...

Yes it is, but it's going to get ugly. Bergevin probably already has Dudley's list.

No I doubt it.. it is a small fraternity.. You want to show that you are loyal for any future employment. He will likely remove himself from both teams until after the draft.

Just wait until UG goes on about this error the Leafs made. You'll be sure that the Habs are on the fast track to instant dynasty.

Trading this 2nd round pick for Liles is stupid. He is a UFA at the end of the season, and if the Leafs want to keep him they'll have to overpay him by a lot.

Leafs should have never traded Mitchell, big mistake.
