Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

Leafs arent winning squat in 3 years
So why the worry about wasting a year then? They are certainly not winning anything next year. I think in 3 years they could have a chance if they reshape the roster judiciously. Get quality goaltending, upgrade the blue line, upgrade secondary scoring. No small tasks, but they have solid pieces and a flexible cap situation.
 
You think Nashville doesn’t trade Askarov and Molendyk for a signed Marner?? I think they do that in a split second.
Nope, I don't. Maybe Molendyk, but Toronto wouldn't take him. They don't need a 19 year old d-man who might (keyword being, "might") be an NHL regular in two years.

I think you're going to be mightily disappointment if that's what you believe the trade might end up being.

Different answer, you’re saying that Toronto won’t go for it, which I would agree, but Nashville definitely makes that deal. I do think Toronto will want a few more established players but I don’t really see what Nashville has to offer that would make sense for Toronto.
 
Normal procedure for the Canes when front office staff reaches the end of their contracts. Waddell and Tulsky have interviewed with other organizations in the past before staying with the Canes. This is nothing new which Lebrun and Friedman know.

Tulsky has been the defacto GM since Dundon bought the team - Gord Miller has been saying for a while Tulsky‘s had final approval on all player moves (draft selections, trades, UFA signings, contracts etc.) as mandated by Dundon.

Give Tulsky the job and move on
 
This week’s 32-Thoughts, Friedman said he’s been told CBJ wants Waddell because he’s viewed in the league as a businessman vs just hockey ops guy
