Leafs 2026-2027 Season

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.

So whats the plan. Wait until the last minute and watch him sail off into the sunset like Marner? This year is clearly a bust. It's a little over a year until next years trade deadline. This team won't be contending for anything next year either. Start blowing up the team and they will get the message

The plan is in Matthews hand not Pelley's. How have you not realized that yet. For the last freaking time. He has a full NMC. Now I ask you once again. Who is at fault for this mess that started with Shanahan 10 years ago and why is Pelley to blame for it.

Keith Pelley - Watch the press conference. We believe this past season was a 1 off
Wrong again
 
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
Pelley's, who's not a hockey guy, failure was in making a determination on the direction of the team before hiring a general manager and then hiring one who would conform to that vision. He said so himself at that infamous press conference, " a rebuild is out of the question."
Chayka is the new Johnny Bravo.
