that's one thing I will miss about the Dubie-man, very greatly.

If they're concerned about optics (not saying they are) they won't hire the guy Pittsburgh said no to in order to take Dubas.
Parasite media will have a field day.

Feels too lazy and inconsistent to go with him.
This doesn’t feel like a Shanny choice. Would need to see it to believe it.

What if Tulsky took himself out of Pit running for the Leafs though?

To be fair—that is specifically a list of his fugly contracts.
He had some good ones too (Gio, Gaudreau’s last deal), but it’s a shorter list than the one above and in no way balances out all the godawful deals he handed out.

yeah not great.
trying to make excuses as i go down the list....
...top 2 were desperation mode.
Monahan was actually probably a good contract that got screwed by injury.
the goalie contract definitely worries me, and I would expect him to come in here and try to sign a big name goalie right away.
and then......yeah the ones after that are all shitty too. only excuse i could make is that it costs more to get guys to sign in calgary. but still, not good.

Is andy an insider at all?
You'd think that anyone with real info would at least give some sort of "sources tell me" intro.

Too bad Armstrong has 3 yrs left. He'd be perfect.
