See it’s good when 4 elite players take up all your cap space. No room to give out dumb contracts.

I mean we all ascribed to the 'pay your stars' theory and then fill out the rest of the roster.
In theory, the hardest part ought to be getting the stars. We've ticked that box at least.

And they’re still young enough to win multiple cups. Just takes a competent GM to build around them now.

exactly...most teams that fall into cap hell do so because they don't have real elite players, understandably can't find them easily and so they end up giving their non elite players (or those on the market) way too much money

So still the only actual name linked to us in any way is Treliving so far? You gotta think they have multiple interviews set up or have reached out to a few ppl.

I mean the media has known jack shit about what's actually happening inside the team basically since Shanny took over.
I don't expect that to meaningfully change cause he fired the Doobieman.
drown out the noise, they know as much as we do.

Of course the model makes sense...as long as the guys you're paying top 10 salaries to actually perform as such, and carry your team's ultimate success on their backs.
If you don't get that kind of performance out of them, and it's not giving you a leg up on the other good teams, then the entire premise falls apart.

yeah, CARTER VERHAEGHE and his 4.2M cap hit outperforming guys making 2.5x more in a short series can’t happen

I still think Shanny has been talking to someone since the day after Kyle’s presser.

It’s not randomness. Verhaghe is good and Kerfoot sucks and they make about the same. The Leafs spend money on depth players and they do nothing every year.

Verhaghe is one of their top players tho, and out produced every Leaf

Only one person is making the decision about the new GM, and he isn't talking about it.

More than one are I assure you.
PR, HR, Legal and ownership are all involved. It comes out of one man's mouth though.
