They could’ve gotten him for a lot less..

This guy is the epitome of leaving work to the last second. I can’t believe the Leafs did this to themselves.

We went all in last year and didn’t win when it mattered in game 7.
Yes this trade sucks but if we had won that game 7 who knows what would’ve happened and how it would be looked at now.

Brads panic trades are legendary, people put more thought into moves in their fantasy league.

First and a blue chip prospect for slightly better Ilya Lyubushkin.

The headline contradicts the article, which says they had discussed the ‘general parameters’ of the deal previously.

This tracks with what the guy from sdpn said after the last tdl. Tre waits too long and the gets desperate.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the trade that was rejected by the leagues because it came in late was put together by tre on one of the sides.

No wonder Brad choked up when asked about a “plan”. This guy is Mr fucking wing it, till we don’t win it. Fuck me.

He was probably drunk when he agreed

The thing that gets me is that he’s such a non-Bruin it’s insane.

Can we get an AI GM instead. Seems like more logic than Brad right now.

It hasn’t helped that Carlo hasn’t lived up to his end of the deal. I swear he was a psycho against us when we played the Bruins in the playoffs and now he’s just Freddy Gauthier on Defense. Either way, there should be a franchise rule to never trade with the Bruins again

Fire him into the sun.

Whoever the bruins get at 6 is going to be an amazing player

Hilarious that he proceeded to do the exact same thing the next year just in reverse as sellers and got the worst possible return. fire this guy immediately

Adam Wylde and Dangle were discussing this a couple weeks ago on their podcast. Adam said from the people he’s talked to say Brad takes FOREVER to make a decision. So what happened last year at the deadline completely checks out. Brad if acted earlier and was more decisive could’ve added a different RHD for much less than what he paid for Carlo. Bruins basicially knew leafs had to act and held them over a barrel if they wanted to get the deal done. As a GM it’s your JOB to not be put in these situations and get outsmarted by others GM’s. Fuck Brad Treliving, he’s an incompetent idiot who’s done nothing in his career but turn franchises into dumper fires. I guarantee he doesn’t get another job after this.

Yea but minton would not have played as well in toronto

Shanahans parting gift to the organization was Brad Treliving. Don’t forget that

If Brad knew Mitch wasn’t coming back, why not use those two prospects and two firsts for someone to fill that role? Rantanen deal fell through, but why pivot to Laughton and Carlo. Crazy that he’s still GM.

For the amount that Brad is paid, it’s insane that he can refuse to do his homework and remain employed. The leafs have the largest and most expensive front office in the league. They have the man power to have the work done for any possible trade at all times.
