2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

[Bender]

So my guess is Doug Armstrong comes in as president and GM until he finds a GM of choice and kicks Berube out. Again.

And I hope he finds a way to launch Domi off this roster. I would even welcome having him bought out.

I would keep Rielly 10000x over Domi.

There's some rumblings about Doug Armstrong which I wouldn't be against but only on some radio hits. Also, we already went through the President/GM separation issue with Shanahan. Do we want to do that again?

Either way I'd be a lot happier with an Armstrong/DeBoer combo than what we have now.

IF the Leafs win the lottery, would you go for

A) Gavin 'TKO' McKenna elite playmaking C
B) Tall and Two-way RHD Keaton Verhoeff
C) a Swedish LW Mitch Marner in Ivar Stenberg

McKenna's a winger, not a centre. And you draft the best player available, always.

It's 1000x better than the dipshits running the show now.

And I'd be fine with Armstrong being president and GM and keeping it that way.

oh yeah, thanks; seems that has solidified this past season. This sort of breaks the tie for me towards Verhoeff.

I don't know. A guy with a little less talent, but grit and all that may be a better choice vs a pure 'skill' guy that will get pushed around when the games count.
