Not even a presser. Wow!.

What a joke
- Kyle Dubas

I'm here for maximum chaos. (frank) poop up. Let's gooooooooooooooooo!

I always liked Burkie.
Let's just all accept that Leafs are not going to win a SC next 50years.
At least Burkie was entertaining. Sports is entertainment.
Burkie GM.
Tortorella coach.
Get rid of all the woke stuff and just play some grown up hockey.

Nah, I don't think we have to pay the "working and living in Calgary" tax.

4x1.3434M. (I think AM34 wants 3 and Leafs will want 5... they meet in the middle)
- mjones242

. He will get the same cap % over 3 so he can cash in big when the cap shoots up IMO.... 12.9 now and 15 in 3 years from now.

Treliving experience:

Career ECHLer.

Assistant GM of the Coyotes and GM of the San Antonio Rampage.

Drafted Blake Wheeler and never signed him.

Learned everything he knew from a former player agent who had never been a GM and hasn't been one since.

Results: Horrible.

2nd job: GM of the Flames for 9 years.

Results: Missed playoffs: 4 times, 2nd round: 3 times, 1st round exit twice.

Drafted Sam Bennett then traded him for a bag of pucks.

Drafted Tkachuk. Traded him. Was forced to but still, it happened and hasn't worked in the short term.

Drafted Adam Fox. You guessed it. Traded him too.

Stole Dougie Hamilton from Boston then traded him (with Adam Fox) for less than they were worth 3 years later.

Let Johnny Hockey go for nothing. (Get ready for this one with Matthews if he doesn't get Tkachuk'd first.)

Oh yeah, this guy looks PUUUUUUUUURFECT for the Leafs. Perfect.

His biggest mistake no doubt.

Plan the parade.

Saves on the cap, maybe a job at BP as a "server's assistant" and he gets paid $1500 per hour?
- PatC80

you mean the greeter at the door that bring you the your table

5 years, 13.3M per season contract incoming.

Johnny Richarded him around until the last second and decided to take less money from a loser team.

Does that agent also represent Tree Living?
- mjones242

from a different division eh!!!!

His biggest mistake no doubt.
- Scabeh

It's going to be real fun watching the Blue Kool-Aid boys attempt to defend this guy and everything that happened in Calgary the past 9 years.

This is like when the Leafs signed a broken down Matt Murray and people trying to defend that move.

The song remains the same.

So he pulled a Tavares. Great.

I don't think you can take that risk as a GM, not with your best player considering the asset he would bring back.

As far as I recall, the vast majority of the people here didn't like the Murray trade when it happened. But ok.

You’re a guy who doesn’t like anything. If we resurrected Sam Pollack he would suck in your eyes.

The Sam Bennett one is a hilarious one because I remember me wanting to send a 2nd for Bennett and getting ridiculed for it

97% of hockey fans thought he was a bum.

Or… and I know it sounds crazy…. But GMs are forced to do their job under the decided approach of their employer. Basically marketing is something that must be considered as well and not just talent. A sincere consideration I’m having.

this needs an oy-vey.

give him a few year before you looking down at him.

Dubas go Matt Murray for free. Why complain cause he's always hurt. that will allow for LTIR usage

So he pulled a Tavares. Great.

You’re not a Leafs fan and that’s fine with me. But let’s not pretend that your opinion is unbiased.

no everybody praised Dubas for the Matt Murray signing
