Yeah, I agree. To me, it's another example of Dubas building teams that succeed in the regular season but struggle in the playoffs. Pittsburgh was never going to win the Cup, but they shouldn't be on the verge of being swept by the Flyers.

I think, if Cassidy was the guy ownership wanted, he would have been hired already. I think we're looking more at someone like Malhotra - someone with experience behind the bench, but never as the head guy in the NHL.

The problem is expecting the new GM and/or POHO to make one of their first moves firing him (because anyone competent is firing him). Take that burden away from prospective hires. Don't make their first major move be a negative one.

They're either going to win the lottery or give the Bruins the 6th pick. There will be no in between.

Well, I certainly won’t miss this garbage, aimless “strategy” that they’ve employed for the last two years.

I'm hoping Seattle can make this game meaningless enough that the Leafs can send the sens into the playoffs on a sour note. Of course, we won't know about that until after the game, but, nevertheless, that's the hope.

Honestly, not going to learn much about the kids under Bérubé in garbage time. It’s basically like preseason games, just at the end of the season.

Putting out the same lineup that couldn’t get it done all season instead of a bunch of hungry kids? That’s tanking right.

Except Sundin was a point game player in a lower scoring era.

No end of season awards. No particularly large season totals (career high is 88 points). Below point/game for his career. Hall of Very Good, I’d say, especially considering his contemporaries.

Mehta would be an interesting hire, for sure, and very much in the vein the team should be looking at - up-and-coming AGMs/executives who haven't sat in the big chair but otherwise have NHL experience. Don't go for a "name" or anything like that. Just like with coaches, there are very few GMs in...

This should pretty much guarantee Bérubé is gone in a few weeks.

Torts is certainly an interesting choice.

The only ones on the drive to fail are the fans

To be fair, he’s from St Louis. You gotta start him against his hometown team.

I’m not sure how much damage Treliving can do right now. As long as he’s gone before the real offseason work begins, it’s okay. Bérubé….just cut the cord already.

The standards are too low. That was a completely unnecessary and dangerous hit that was clearly from behind the whole way. A hit that could have resulted in a very serious injury. 3 games is basically a slap on the wrist. It doesn't do anywhere near enough to discourage these types of plays. The...
