If the playoff results are on Shanny then why does he still have the job lol

Jersey sales……..

 

[The Masters]

we need 2-3 grenades thrown in here

marner tavares gtfo

Reilly is unmovable. They wont eat salary to make it happen. They will strip Tavares of Captain to shame him into retirement and make Marner beg to leave.

yeah that's not happening.

At most they MIGHT trade Marner and Tavares at the TD and eating 50% of the salary

 

[Lightsol]

Once marner realizes they have no intnetion of signing him and a new coach 3rd lines him, he will want out.

Or, thanks to the dumbassery of people deciding to do this now, he goes through the motions ignoring everything for a year and then shafts the team by leaving for nothing.

The people who keep talking about the Larry Murphy solution continue to miss a very key fact; Murphy had multiple years on his contract, which meant that his only out was trade; that's why it sort of worked. But in this case? Marner and Tavares hold ALL the cards.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Why did they tell Sundin first? they dont have to do anything till a new coach says I dont want him.

Marner's got another year. I don't think they seriously approached Sundin until the middle of his last year.

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Loved the press conference. Basically saying they are approaching marner and tavares to waive. Pressure is on the players to agree to waive.

Hopefully they add rielly to that list as well.

Time for some trades!

 

[IPS]

Yes he's very good at saying a bunch of words without answering questions but ... his answer there made feel like Marner won't be back. Very good news if true, I hope I'm not wrong.

The bits about "players not adjusting their game for the playoffs"... I really wonder who those are directed towards

 

[leafsfan5]

Wasn't 'everything on the table' last off season?

Well Dubas did say it last year, as well as say there's a time and place for patience.

He was fired and Shanny phoned the core telling them not to worry like 3 days later, though

 

[Darcy Tucker]

...and Rielly too, or maybe not but some of them for sure

People are just making up shit at this point.

 

[rumman]

smart water brand placement. ABC: Always Be Closing

Or, in the Leafs case: always be choking…….

 

[darrylsittler27]

Marner's got another year. I don't think they seriously approached Sundin until the middle of his last year.

This is just it. When is peak trade time? They could wait till TD and make him beg.

 

[ShelbyZ]

Dubas, the good talker, but a charlatan was even able to convince Babcock for a brief period..."our toughness is our powerplay" were Babcock's words.

That wasn't new for Babcock unfortunately. Same thing was said in Detroit for the first two years out of the lockout until they got beat up by the Ducks in the 2007 WCF.

 

[nuck]

He's not a hockey guy, he's a business guy. So yeah, probably the last time we hear from him for a long time.

Until Shanny is replaced.

 

[Tedd]

Shanny believed in Dubas AND the Core 4...BOTH were proven to be a failure in judgment. He should have been fired. One good thing is Treliving has probably pushed him into a better way of thinking. Tre get's it.

 

[rumman]

Our CEO ran a golf tour. How ironic. LOL.

You can’t make this shit up……..

 

[Apex Predator]

I thought Brad handled a lot of the questions well. Makes me feel more comfortable .

 

[9Iron]

as a non leafs fan I gotta say. Shanny is a pure scammer

Him apparently staying has made every other fanbase warm and fuzzy this morning. They will be thanking him (for nothing) this exact day next year.

 

[keonsbitterness]

They strip Tavares and humilate him.Its Mathews team now.

They won't do that, and where is the evidence Matthews has more leadership ability?

 

[Kazparov]

No mention of any injury concerns for Mitch.

Read into that what you will.

Good point!!!

 

[rumman]

Chemistry and unity between Brad and Shanny. LOL

This scares me…….

 

[The Masters]

 

[leafsfan5]

I think how you view Shanahan's answers, are largely based upon your perception of him in advance... so you are going to be mad at him already, or not.

Honestly, it doesn't matter what he, and Brad say... it matters what they do. Do they move forward, and make some hard changes to this organization, or not? If they do make some hard changes, yes, there was conviction. This is walk the walk time.

Yeah overall, nothing they say will mean too much.

The most interesting part of all this was the injury comments + Shanhan's comments on patience. Seems like this is the first time he has acknowledged that we can't keep doing this over and over again

Now what does that mean for their roster moves? Who knows, and I'm glad they're not airing it out for us today

 

[All Mod Cons]

Brad showed very well in that press conference. If he is allowed to do his job, i think we are in good hands.

 

[ACC1224]

People are just making up shit at this point.

It's been pretty entertaining reading all these takes people have.
