The contract ask seemed like a bit of a Hail Mary if those numbers we got are true.
As reported previously in the aftermath of the Leafs elimination, Shanahan and Dubas had been at odds for a while. On Friday, more details emerged on that front. Multiple sources close to the team said that Shanahan had blocked transactions that Dubas wanted to make at key points in the past several seasons, creating frustration in parts of the management group. Shanahan had also at times dictated certain moves he wanted made that Dubas didn’t agree with.
The president, as per his place in the hierarchy, typically won out in those battles. And, in some cases, the moves that weren’t made could have improved the Leafs’ ability to advance further in the playoffs.
So there is your problem. Your next GM will be a puppet to Shanahan.Keefe not playing Sandin, how much do you think that had a bearing on him being dealt?
Ugh.makes a lot of sense with some of the moves that made zero sense from Dubs perspective. this makes me even more concerned with the direction they will go in the new gm
They made their first offer….the agent made a counter offer.
Shanny balked cause of the presser…
You hope Dubas wins a cup with Ottawa?Part of me hopes Dubas goes full AA and goes somewhere else and wins a cup. Maybe Ottawa as that article suggests.
Although if he does.... Dorion actually isn't terrible, is he?
Like miles better than treliving, right?
That's exactly correct. Don't use a puppet as a shield from the press. Pussy should if he's getting his fingers in there consistently. Maybe the issue is the Shanaplan itself?Ugh.
If Shanahan thinks he can be the GM, be the fucking GM
of course he's far too smart to do that, as we can see from him still being here after 9 years
Swap GMS. Take dorion for nowPart of me hopes Dubas goes full AA and goes somewhere else and wins a cup. Maybe Ottawa as that article suggests.

You hope Dubas wins a cup with Ottawa?
Are… you serious?
Mirtle I take more seriously than the other asses typically. It’s real concerning.Yeah if that's true then forget about it..this organization is fucked.
I don't know why Dubas talked to the press...he should have talked to his wife...and then spend some time in an Aaron Rodgers style dark cave until he figured out if he wanted the job, and at what price...
