He should go to the Islanders to work with Lou/be next in line.

My personal opinion is that he really is a very intelligent guy, and would be an excellent part of a team - just not in the GM role making the final decisions.

As a fan of the Leafs and another team, absolutely not.

Buddy was gifted 4 really good players when he arrived (Matthews, Marner, Nylander, Rielly.. Tavares too if you wanna count that signing) and all he's done is instill a loser culture and fail to bring in proper depth around them. Each year the goaltending got worse and the middle/bottom 6 forwards have consistently been filled with soft "skill" players that you don't win with.

If you want to build a Doug Wilson style perennial loser thats a cap mess, Dubas is your guy. Actually now that I think about it that comparison is unfair to Wilson, his teams could actually win a round or two.

Interesting, this same poll was done in October and 60% said NO.

Same poll was done yesterday and 60% said YES.

Is it really that interesting?

I recall when Tavares was a UFA and this forum insisted Leaf fans were delusional thinking he would sign here (because before that we said every player was coming home) there was a poll after the season of where he ranked in centers. He was firmly top 10 (8th if I recall).

About a month after the signing, with 0 games played since then, the same poll was done and he was voted around 15-20th.

Results are currently a resounding no.

However, now that the Leafs fired him - I expect them to be a resounding yes.

I love that Leafs fans brought this thread back just to play victim.
