When is the season ender press conference?

[Bomber0104]

Did Dubas give us any more Chinese farmer parables in the presser or did he pass on those today?

 

[rumman]

There is no scenario where Ceci is brought back as an player, right?
Maybe a Marlies player coach or something, but not with the leafs.

Dubas:

I honestly believe he will be back.

I would praise my boss too if I was making millions and he never got mad at me and told me what a great job I was doing even when I wasn't. I'd even let him pay when he begged me to be able to come out for drinks with me and my buddies.

Aparently Lou has ruined that team.

well ya, that's what old dinosaur style GMs do right?

with all those slow/low skill neanderthals on the roster

Is fully expect him back. There’s a reason they traded for and retained him.

Don’t they have to qualify him at the same salary or slight bit more?

No idea. Apparently cap isn’t an issue with Dubas math so won’t matter.

Wow,talk about jump,sidestep,duck and spin.

After listening to this yada,yada,yada stuff I think it would be a favour to him to be fired.

Young,good looks,impish grin,oozes charm,can sound impressive without really saying anything,can spin anything into a positive and the ability of a master con man makes him a sure thing Liberal candidate and future Prime Minister.

I guess they could sign him to a much lower contract like the Bruins did with Chara after he’s a FA.

Probably due for a raise. Apparently Dubas has super secret stats that show he’s way better then what the fans think. Once you see them you’ll probably be looking to pick up a Ceci jersey

 

[BrannigansLaw]

This face pretty much sums up the presser on Kyle's end

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Dubas uses super secret math. Trust the process, all will be revealed

I honestly am curious to know what these internal metrics he keeps referring to are. Such a vague and sort of I know better than you aura with that response.

This face pretty much sums up the presser on Kyle's end lol

The face of a guy that just got freshly chewed out by Shanahan, the MLSE board, and the media.

Do yourself a favor and stay off social media Kyle!

And for heaven sake hold onto those Chinese parables at least until your next 2 game winning streak!

They teach them at Brock. No one goes there that’s why they’ve never been heard of.

 

[Keon1963]

I believe Dubas said he will only have to sign RFAs to fill out his roster????


"We've got a little bit of space and we’ve got restricted free agents only to sign back." Dubas

 

[rumman]

still can't believe what Shanahan, Dubas, and a select few players said today. I'm hoping Larry, Bell, Rogers and the board are as trouble by what was said today as I am?

 

[Canadian Finn]

you just have to be patient.

social media is tough on these kids.

these expectations are unfounded.

people only look at their pay, not their human hearts.

we should be less mean to the players, then things will turn around.

Imagine if his agent uses those numbers and charts when talking a deal with Kyle. We both have him in the 5 mil range Kyle. Let's get it done.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Saying Ceci is good based on “internal metrics” and that Holl is a top four defenseman makes me worried with regards to player evaluation. Like I hope he’s bullshitting for the sake of protecting the players but even then, come on Kyle.

Also since he’s so adamant Mitch isn’t going anywhere, Willy, pack your shit. Nylander will have to be the sacrificial lamb to clear cap space and address the defence. Though that’s if Dubas recognizes that he has to take away from the offence to address the glaring holes on defence.

I’ll need new glasses first, if I have any money left over I may just do that.

"Marner: "We want to be known as a team that plays every single night as hard as we can and makes it hard on other teams."

Leafs sure have talked a big game recently but it reminds me of this

 

[ItsFineImFine]

These quotes all suggest that mgmt believes their own hype, we're screwed if that is the actual case.
