The Mother-fucking goddamn Off-season Thread

[Volcanologist]

ok, so Kyle wussing out at his presser turned this whole thing it sounds like

 

[zeke]

 

[Wayward DP]

But by this point, Shanny had changed his mind! Oh the drama.

 

[hockeylover]

This is fucking weird.

 

[Montana]

Can’t believe Shanny got butthurt over an email and emotionally made a dogshit decision to gamble the future of our franchise.

 

[Preston]

Kyle wanted to get paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaid by the end. What a fucking presser.

 

[CH1]

wow...Dubas expressed his desire to return....but Shanny lost his enthusiasm...what a flip/flop

 

[Volcanologist]

This is fucking weird.

yeah but this is the Leafs and they never do anything the normal way

 

[Wayward DP]

Wow. who needs Netflix when you have TML management.

 

[zeke]

so basically - he was coming back, until that presser.

then 2 things happened - shanny starting thinking of other possibilities (and liking them), and then Dubas came back with a much bigger contract demand.

Can’t believe Shanny got butthurt over an email and emotionally made a dogshit decision to gamble the future of our franchise.

I'll admit, I was full on Team Keep Dubas and that presser made me question if he even wanted to be here too. I'm not sure I blame Shanny for walking away thinking wtf?

 

[worm]

So... Random on Twitter was right?

 

[Montana]

wow...Dubas expressed his desire to return....but Shanny lost his enthusiasm...what a flip/flop

always good to turn on a decision you believed in all year, on a whim.


coolcoolcool

 

[Wayward DP]

so the rumours were true....Shanny blindsided by Dubas' sad presser earlier this week

not just shanny, everyone I think. but yeah

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Shanny gets a call from Kyle's agent on Thursday with a "new financial package". "Conversation was brief".

Didn't hear further from Kyle.

Then Kyle says he does want to be GM. What a saga.

This was the confusing part of the story.

He was shaken by the press conference, but then what does the financial package matter? I almost prefer he didn't mention that if the money wasn't a factor.

 

[CH1]

but it wasn't about $$$ because Shanny could have countered money wise but lost interest

 

[Preston]

Oh shit he's going gudpro GM

 

[Wayward DP]

wow...Dubas expressed his desire to return....but Shanny lost his enthusiasm...what a flip/flop

part of me wonders if he officially expressed his desire to return but then made an offer that he knew would never be accepted. who knows.

 

[mbow30]

Sounds like Kyle used the presser to squeeze some more juice out of the lemon and shanny called the bluff.

 

[zeke]

"certainly being an experienced GM would be an attractive possibility"
