One of the underrated storylines of the day is how the entire league is butt(frank)ing Buffalo by not coughing up what they want for Eichel

They better take a little less and move on especially if he has a neck issue.

While we were taking about Dubas I decided to take a look at the leafs thread. I haven’t done that in a long time. It was worth the visit total tire fire.

Dubas really seems a lot like Garth.

He’s a different kind of suck. I think it’s hysterical how leaf fans completely hitched their wagons to him like he was some kind of incredible hire. Hysterical.

Still say he's going to be a Ranger. And the longer this drags out, the more likely it is they'll get him for a song.

Not sure how a 32 year old can be a GM. Same for Chayka ( I think he was 26). Blows my mind.

Eichel is incredibly talented but I still think he’s a cancer. I hope the Rangers get him and give up a ton for the (frank)ing ginger.

You're right, it is a dumpster fire over there. Like the way we used to talk about Snowtard.

Their roster was flawed, and even with that roster they’re worse on paper with the departures. Filigno just went to Boston.

Their thread anytime I have stopped by revolves around how bad Lameriello is and ten of them trying to explain how Dubas is better and three of them disagreeing. Still happening today

Like Garth in terms of he looks down on any suggestion of trading one of his prize players like they won a couple of Cups.

Their roster is putrid. But I'm sure if one was to go over there and say that, they'd jump all over you and defend it to the death.

It's incredible to me how Shanny seems to avoid taking a lot of heat and he was suppose to be the next great Exec.

How can anyone make an argument that Dubas is better than Lou? You can love your team all you want but the numbers never lie. The day after the leafs lost game 7, Mitch Marner was on the golf course. He’s a rookie GM who was brought on because of his math skills, but clearly there’s no stat for heart!!

Shanny should be fired for choosing Dubas over Lou. Leafs need a fresh start (again).

And how’s that worked out for him 3 years now? The ownership needs to admit the mistake and revamp. Shanny….thanks for the memories and take wonder boy Dubas with ya. That team needs a proven winner as president and go from there

The best result would be the Laffs don't even make the playoffs next year and they keep Dubas on.

Big time. People were planning the parade when he was hired and not just in Toronto.

Honestly, after last years debacle being up 3-1 and losing in game 7, Dubas is on notice if you ask me. If this season is another failure they’re gonna clean house.

I thought back in the day before Shanny took the Leafs job, there was talk of him joining the Islanders or some wanted it to happen? I do not remember now. Glad it did not happen.

Little incentive for Leafs owners. That makes it tough for big time changes.
