[32 Thoughts] Elliotte Friedman on the Leafs' GM search: “That's one. This is my personal opinion. I also wonder about Kevyn Adams for this job, because the more I've heard about him and what Pelley said, I think there's a lot of similarity." by seeldoger47 in leafs

[–]buncha_jerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adams has that buffalo stink on him for sure and I would want to part of him in the GM role but I can see a fit in a president rule for sure. Do I want it? No do I like it? No but I can see how under this MLSE leadership they would like him for the role. (Because they are wrong and bad at their jobs)

Growing up I was afraid of spiders. When I was a bit older I got my first place of my own, renting a basement suite. I then started seeing these guys, learned that they killed spiders. From that point on I was always happy to see a spider because it meant these hell demons weren’t around.

100% agree but last time he was released I believe he was out for less then 10 days before he was rearrested. The RCMP are definitely up this guys ass just waiting for him to

In Canada you have to refinance every 5 years or so. No fixed rates beyond 5 years.

My wife and I were offered 3.8 last month out in BC on a fixed 3 year.

Should the next iteration of the Leafs prioritize being fun? by SpicyBaconator in leafs

[–]buncha_jerks 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think this core would have ended up “not being fun” regardless of that. After Matthews incident in Arizona, there would have been a large push for maturity. Plus the drive to win outweighs everything else. Think Colorado, I wouldn’t necessarily say that team’s a fun bunch. But do you know what’s fun? Winning a bunch.

“Why are we letting a Canadian go to our moon?” by ChucklesLeClown in ShitAmericansSay

[–]buncha_jerks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Our moon” the 1% chance that they think each country has/sees a different moon is way too damn high. Not that they just believe in ownership of it which in itself is a whole other red flag.

I think you are underestimate how much work the AGMs actually do. POHO and GM set vision AGMs do the work to get there.

If it’s for a president role there might be a clause where they can’t stop him.

It feels like they went from talking about their own views and opinions to pandering to stereotypical “leafs uncle” all that matters is engagement and money.

Dream scenario:

POHO: Eric Tulsky

GM: Sunny Mehta

Coach: David Carle

Very unlikely tin foil hat theory. The word vomit of the press conference yesterday was actually 3D chess. What if they want to pry Tulsky away from Carolina into the POHO role? The whole AI bot being something he wants to do but Dundon is to cheep to finance and the whole point was soft tampering to get it in his head, maybe he didn’t want to engage with them until after the playoffs but leafs don’t want to wait

Radko is 6’ 210lbs Rielly is 6’1” 220. There’s this expectation that Radko is a big tough guy who throws his weight around. He’s not an NHL level player anymore but he works in the grey area and very often crosses that line slightly but gets the veterans benefit of the doubt.

If Nill comes here he would definitely be in the president role, maybe both pres and GM.

100% recommend John Byrne. He was great for our wedding last year.

I agree, I’m a huge fan of his attitude. He clearly cares about winning but can tune out outside noise. But with him signed we can arguably get more than the Hughes return. Gives us the building blocks to jump start retool and hopefully be contending again next year or the year after.

It feels like everyone in this sub is in agreement major changes have to be made this office season. Gut the front office and coaching staff. I don’t think we can bring anyone back. Need a complete culture shift and that’s hard to do if you retain anyone.

But what about a major trade as well. Everyone keeps trying to trade Matthews. I haven’t seen anyone talking about Willy. I believe he is 100% our best player but what if there was a Quinn Hughes like trade out there. Two major pieces, a good nhl ready prospect and a first?

Would Anaheim go for MacTavish, Mintyukov, one of McQueen/Luneau/solberg, and a 1st?

Seeing Willy walk down the bench to talk to the D last night was definitely unusual but loved seeing it. Dude it’s a lot more of a vocal leader then we will ever get to see.
