@Maple Leafs de Toronto

[Seravalli] « Des sources affirment que les Maple Leafs passent à l’étape ‘finaliste’ de leur processus d’entrevue cette semaine. Aucune garantie quant au calendrier, mais ce ne serait pas une surprise de voir un nouveau directeur général en place d’ici la fin de la semaine. »


Je suppose qu’il s’agira d’une annonce conjointe de Mike Gillis en tant que président/directeur général avec Sundin dans une sorte de rôle consultatif hybride Suède/Toronto pour résoudre les problèmes culturels.

Je pense que cela sera également annoncé un vendredi car les Leafs adorent publier des communiqués de presse avant un week-end.

  1. Has this guy broken any Toronto news? From everything I’ve seen of him he’s been a pretty shitty second rate “insider”. Hell, Kypreos is more plugged in than this dude.

    I could be proven completely wrong tomorrow. But I usually only trust Elliotte.

    This guy is younger than Easton Cowan but looks older than Marners dad.

    Can someone leak the swimsuit contest photos?

    So Freidman said they’d done mostly zoom meetings with 9 or 10 candidates. The next stage is in person. Meaning they only have a couple candidates left.

    How many of those initial meetings were with guys who basically said something to the effect of « I do not see a viable avenue to produce a playoff team nexr season with the given roster, its trade capital, and the options available in UFA ».

    Probably quite a few. So unless Pelley’s had his eyes opened by the number of people who’ve said « pick or no pick, we need to blow it up », we’re getting a yes man who has said all the right things in the interview, but will not be able to piece things together.

    Just watching the first round so far, and the sheer speed, intensity, and skill of these games is a reminder of how far this team is from sorting itself out.

    I personally am at the point where a 5th overall pick is the worst thing that could happen despite the quality that will be available at 5. You’re not getting an NHL ready player from it who can help next year, and unless we’re getting major additions next year, we’re gonna want that ’27 pick.

    A 1st overall? Ok, so we have some added top 6 scoring, which just might be enough to lift morale and prevent us from handing over a high pick next year.

    A 6th overall? Ok, so the new GM can wash his hands and say it wasn’t my trade, and if the team falters next year, their ’27 pick is in their hands and the writing on the wall with Matthews approaching a contract year after back to back no playoff years means they have to face reality.

    Just a note, there is no chance Pronger is getting this job. I’m not anti-Pronger, I don’t really have an opinion, but putting two and two together, his talk with the Leafs was a while back, and he’s literally been on the media rounds (promoting his new book) and giving actual detail in what his plans for the Leafs would be, which no serious candidate would be. Again, I’m not against Prongs being a part of the team, he seems like an interesting guy, I just don’t think any serious candidate for a front office job would spend a month making public record of what he’s gonna try and do (take it down to the studs, trade 34/88 etc)

  6. madax-gambar

    engagement farming by frank. nothing newsworthy here

  7. CrossfireZX5

    So another 3 weeks then since Seravalli is a hack piece of shit who knows sweet fuck all

  8. If Frank Seravalli says it, it must not be true!

  9. Frank pretending like he is an insider instead of a world class dickhead. His source is probably Friedman.
