I see a few issues….😆

First and foremost everyone should calm down some. Hell lets wait and see all the actual injuries that come out here for one thing.

I expect in short order we will find out the fate of the management side of things. I doubt Shanny is sacked. Dubas is a question mark and really who is legitimately out there that is actually better? Keefe, dead man walkin. Coaches always take the fall and are hired to be fired. Enough questions are there with him. Gallant being available would be an upgrade.

As for roster those saying Marner no show'd? Thats why he lead the team in points and assists in the playoffs right?!

Changes are coming. I do think one or two of the core go and some other changes in the bottom 6. Goaltending too. Woll definitely the backup next year.

Jesus christ. This is going to be a long (frank)ing summer.

You realize the player were nailing as a playoff flop has 22 goals and 44 points in 50 playoff games... Right?
- joel878

Check his points when the series is on the line, during elimination games.
Him and marner do not fair well

Still more hope than the 80's though

I’d take him over Matthews in a heartbeat.

He makes less than $10 mill, plays an all around game, therefore is still useful when not scoring.

Matthews however is just a waste of space if he isn’t burying the puck, he doesn’t play a grinder’s physical game at all. He’s just a puck shooter and nothing more.

Great.
Call the nhl

At the time i posted, they hadnt shown that one angle.
- Fakepartofme

Maybe watch the game and replays and don’t rush to be the hero to be the first hero “realist” to comment on the play perhaps.

Don’t hurt yourself admitting you’re wrong. I know it’s not in your wheelhouse but Jesus man. “Call the NHL” GTFO of here.

Please stop posting.. I can't handle this right now

Yup.
They should have never gotten over 9m per...they simply didnt earn it and still havent
- Fakepartofme

and this is the source of the entire roster management problem.


simply no escaping it. Dubas did do a very good job "this season" at the TDL.. some great moves, but the legacy of CAP mess ups such as Marleau's deal and the 1st rounder that cost; the trade for Foligno which cost far too much, and the lack of truculence added in previous years ... that should and will be Dubas' legacy. There's no escaping that.

and I'm guessing Dubas doesn't have the needed mindset to trade one of Marner & Matthews - which is what must be done.

Dubas should be kept.

But this is interesting

"Canes GM
Don Waddell, hired May 2018
inherited 21st place team that missed playoffs

In 5 yrs:
Reached 2nd rd every yr
Has now reached 2nd ECF

Canes have 4th best total regular season record over his 5 yrs.

His playoff roster has 4 guys he drafted.

Hired 3 days before Dubas!"

Panthers gm traded 100+ point guy and got a heart and soul power forward whos now in the 3rd round

No longer than the summers of the past several decades if failure

Or he could fit in with some of the posters in here.

The little woke bastards will do their 3 minute, clean out their lockers shtick and they'll jet off into holiday time. They'll go deep sea fishing and hang out in Arizona. They don't care about what's being said back home and will collect their large cheques every two weeks. The rest of us will enjoy our 1 or 2 week holidays, this summer and grind out the heat until fall. It'll start all over again and the pretty little rock star's will come flying back in their private jets, saying we will win it all this year! Wrong!!

7 year is long enough. The results speak for themselves. I'm done with these little, pretty fashion models playing a real man's game. What I'd give to see a Gary Roberts, Doug Gilmour or Wendel Clark type of player on this team. Right now, it's a two tiered pay scale, with cheaper, over the hill journeymen picking up the scraps from the spoiled rich kids. It's obvious that the analytics department is no match for heart and persistence. Shanahan needs to recognize this and make changes this summer. It's not enough to just give this pig a facelift and call it pretty. I'm tired of pretty.....I want blood and guts and a will to overachieve.

- BorjeFan4Ever

The marleau deal that a previous GM gave up and Dubas had to clean up?
The Covid crushing the cap growth to stop the league from spending (if you recall the top players were all getting paid those numbers until covid happened and people had to re-assess but the leafs were already in)
There's a lot he has done that I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up with an extension.

So you think these guys will hold teams to less than 2 goals a game. I am not sure defense was the issue against Florida
