I would think to put winning products out there. I mean, if you tell me it's to increase profits I don't buy that.
I never thought of it that way, good point.

He's like a magician. There are games when he pulls a rabbit out of his ass to impress the fans. But most times he disappears.
Loafs trans accept cookie cutter upper management year after year. It's been going on for 50+ years with no end in sight.
You could see this coming right from the Pelley conference after they fired Treliving.
Both Ekholm and Devon Levi did not play last game vs the Leafs due to injury.
Both are in now. Ekholm is on the top pairing with Bouchard.

Being a Leafs fan from the late 60s is like being with a girl you're totally in love with, and all through the relationship there are signs of cheating and red flags.
Then you catch her cheating and realize she's a tramp and has been cheating all along.
Time to dump this broad.

It depends on Matthews. If he wants to leave they'll have no choice but to start a new rebuild. As long as he stays they'll be in a retooling mode. Either way, my humble opinion is to trade Nylander for defence upgrades. It had been speculated before that Matthews was not keen on playing on the same line with him so I'd think that he'd be ok with that idea.
Speculation is pointless, Keith Pelley is towing the corporate line. He has no use for fans. Why the Loafs will never reach the Stanley Cup Final.
Bring back Richard Peddie.

Clearly the direction given to Chayka was not to rebuild this team. Patching a team up that can only win one round in the playoffs is not a recipe to win a Stanley Cup.
Pelley and his minions simply need to resign. GO HOME! Get on the TTC and get the fuck out of here

They haven't reached the Stanley Cup final ever since the league expanded from six to twelve teams. Keith Pelley isn't the reason.

Keith Pelley....and I quote "I am not a hockey guy" but he steers the ship to a patchwork quick fix that is failing. Last in the Atlantic again.
Shanahan was a hockey guy and didn't know much more than Pelley does. Pelley's job is to handle the business side of operations. Yes it's better to have a hockey guy in there but Burke and Shanny both failed in the same role.
The failure is Pelley not giving the current GM full autonomy in decision making. The big contracts need to be moved. Once again needing Pelley's approval. He should not be involved at all in these decisions
So who's at fault Chayka Sundin Hiller or Pelley. Make up your mind. Pelley inherited the mess left behind by the Shanaplan. They have three big contracts with no move clauses and a departing superstar who wouldn't waive his no NMC and then left via free agency. No first round draft selections for the next two seasons and very little after that, and not much prospect capital. Matthews NMC and was injured most of last season and low trade value at the time. Nylander NMC won't waive it and lazy on defence. Reilly NMC, won't waive it and no team wants him even if he does. Rock meet hard place. So now please explain what he should've done.
