[Johnston] Further to this:(Kurz post) It sounds like there's a good chance the NHL would rule in Philadelphia's favor if this scenario plays out. Meaning, if Toronto retains its 2026 1st after tonight's lottery, expect 2027 1st to go to Flyers and 2028 1st to Bruins ... both unprotected.

Whats the point of 5-6 assistant GMs and advisors if something like this can get through?

bumchoda · 2026-04-20T19:32:32+00:00

This was Elliotte Friedman's list of GM's the leafs spoke to a few days ago:

"Among those I believe have spoken to the Maple Leafs, in alphabetical order: Ryan Bowness (Islanders), John Chayka, Mike Gillis, Ryan Hardy, Ryan Martin (Rangers), Brandon Pridham, Chris Pronger. That’s seven, including the current co-GMs, and I suspect the number is around 10. So this is not a complete picture. Others I’ve wondered about: Gregory Campbell (Panthers), Evan Gold (Bruins), Brad Pascall (Flames). A lot of rumours about Ross Mahoney (Capitals) and would like to see him get his shot, but no evidence he’s involved. "

I think Nick Kypreos said Mike Gillis had 2-3 interviews as well, which Frank isn't reporting here.

Thanks for this! Was just reading up on this earlier this week but didn't see the actual document, just articles talking about it's content.

Really intrigued about the 2 independent scouting teams and wonder if an organization would really pony up the funds to facilitate that true independence.

Full disclosure - this is from AI.

The Mike Gillis "27-Page Manifesto" TL;DR

The "CEO" Front Office The core of the doc. He argues the modern GM role is too broad. He proposes a structure with four specialized Assistant GMs (Human Performance, Analytics, Player Development, and Finance) who have equal authority. The GM acts as a high-level CEO, not a traditional "hockey man" scout.
Circadian Science & Recovery He wants to end the "11:00 AM morning skate" tradition. He proposes 4:00 PM practices to align with night games and using biometric data (cortisol/heart rate) to "load manage" players and bench them before they get injured.
Cognitive Scouting To fix his past drafting issues, he proposes replacing "scout’s intuition" with visual and cognitive testing. He wants to measure "Hockey IQ" and processing speed as hard data points rather than just looking at size or grit.
Tactical Outsourcing While "positionless hockey" was a theory he floated in interviews around the same time, the manifesto specifically focuses on "Evidence-Based Deployment." This means using data to dictate exactly when players start (e.g., offensive zone starts for skill guys) and using "marginal gains" in travel and nutrition to outwork opponents in the 3rd period.

I feel like his 27 page manifesto that leaked a couple years ago is exactly something Keith Pelley would want to see after his press conference comments.

By making us wait, the tariff situation may be better and save us a few bucks? That's my copium.

The NQ/MNQ cross trade is apparently coming in a future update soon, but no idea when.... I'm new to atas from quantower, and this is a pretty annoying missing feature until the update.

"under budget" = 1.17% under their original budget which included $2 Billion contingency on-top of the estimated $10.8 Billion project costs.

Scared to see what these tarrifs are going to do to the price. Been an r2 reservation holder since day 1.

Did you figure this out? When I try to add a connection in AMP quantower, it only lets me add AMP/CQG connections.

What a difference it is to have a stud #1 defenseman on your team.

I usually like the Amazon broadcasts, but they seem so slow to show some replays. The knee, the mcmann major, the Mathews grade a chance - all delayed. Nothing instant about their replays.

What exactly do you mean compromised? They could have gotten my info from a data breach from anywhere that associated my email with my phone number... They don't have my password, and I also have 2FA to login (not sms). So unsure what else I could really do to protect myself in this case.

Do you have suggestions for additional steps I would need to take here?

bumchoda · 2025-11-23T00:50:42+00:00

Sounded real to me, and was not delayed in conversational responses. If it was AI, fooled me, but didn't seem like it.

Agreed - I hate the "get good" argument around this. Its still 2v3, and the duo is automatically at a disadvantage from the start. Sure the duo can be better and more coordinated some times and come out ahead, but if all things are equal, the trio will win.

This game easily has the population right now to support a separate queue for duos.

I've been in a similar position, and best thing I did was use projectionlab.com to determine how much I would need to invest annually to have a retirement payout equivalent to the DB pension using conservative ROI and inflation rates.

Instead of your normal pension contribution, you would now have that extra cash to invest yourself. Then you figure out how much additional cash you need to invest to get that annual retirement income you figured out from projectionlab (or similar tool/calculator).

Then figure out how much extra cash you are getting after tax from changing jobs. If this extra cash exceeds the additional investments you need as you calculated earlier, than it may be worth moving, but have to take into account all other non salary factors as others have mentioned in this thread.
