I've said it before, and now that I'm living inThailand I'll say it again, you three have the winning combination for a sports show. You never fail to amuse, entertain, inform, educate,stimulate, and sometimes surprise!. Hope this show lasts forever!
What do you gage a GMs success on? And how much is the coach or players not playing to their potential…. I see nothing but positive things from treliving.
When I was a kid, we rode bicycles without helmets and sometimes had another kid on the crossbarm. We played hockey without pads and used magazines instead. One Christmas I got a pocket knife in my stocking. If there was a playground fight, the teachers would let the fight go on. But we turned oot to be more gentlemanly than the flower children and later generations.
Flames have always had a great blueline under Treliving but they always needed scoring and goaltending. Leafs got scoring and some goaltending ig so if he rebuilds that blueline i think they can surprise everyone.
I lived in Mississauga and worked at lansdown and st.clair took over an hour by ttc and bus at 17. I went regularly to square one and yorkdale from age 11 with my younger brother age 7 … we would call dad for pick up when ready to come home IF it was after lights turned on.
I lived in the Junction and me and my friends would hop on the subway from Keele and go all the way to Scarborough, as young as nine years old. We would run from car to car, when the train would stop.
It's mind blowing if the team brings back the same coach and the 4 guys. I'm so tired of hearing how Matthews is the best player in team history. He puts up numbers in the regular season, in a league that has been physically soft. He has shown no playoff killer instinct what so ever. Instill a mentality that losing is not an option if this team ever wants to change how they play in the playoffs.
We have just witnessed Bell and Rogers approval of having the Boston Pizza empire become a minority owner. Remember Treliving's old man is mega rich. And Larry Tannebaum is not getting any younger. They talk about Shanahan this and that. Just follow the money and you will realize Shanahan was nothing but a yes man for Bell and Rogers. Treliving's old man has spent a small fortune in advertising on TSN and SportsNet.
Im 23 so i was around for this but i heard there was commercials that had to remind parents that their kids were out. I mean growing up if i had friends id would have been out till dark but alas i didnt and played games instead
No. If he was they would've been proactive in hiring him. He wasn't even a plan B, he's just what's on the board when Shanny got caught with his pants down
That's pretty much what I said...like if shanny hires a GM but then tells him oh u gotta keep the core 4 eh, then what the hell is the point of hiring a GM if the GM cant make his own decisions whether or not it's to keep the core 4 or whatever it may be. If ur gonna hire someone to manage the team then u should let him make the decisions to better the team, u better not be telling him who to keep or who not to keep.
If Treliving comes up to the mike and says anything like "We can and We will" we'll know the team will fail and this will all be a waste of time. Treliving seems to build from the net out. The exact opposite of Dubas.
Problem with Mathews is he's a nice guy who hangs with celebrities...he needs an off-season or two, where he dedicates and sacrifices his life to hockey...Like some of the other players in the league...regardless of skill level.
Toronto has a hugh problem on its hands. Matthews could very well ask for a cool $14 million to extend beyond next year. Shanny and brass will have little choice but to swallow hard and agree. Without Matthews, the chances of Toronto winning the cup anywhere in the near future drop from kind of good to zero.
I suspect the focus will change from the core forwards to an NHL quality top 4 D. As long as Matthews is going to resign, it means moving Marner before July and/or Nylander before season starts.
What a horrendous choice. But the Toronto media will love it. Here's a question gurus, why is Shanahan still there? Has he met expectations? Did the ShanaPLAN work? What are the expectations...he's been there for NINE YEARS!!!!!
@@johnsummerhill8323 Brilliant! Of course you are aware the building's been selling out good teams or bad FOREVER right? YOU could have been Prez the last 9 years and it would sell out. Do Leaf fans want a Cup or boast they're Team is the most valuable? No one has been able to do this yet and I've been asking for years, please identify what the ShanaPLAN was? Detail how Shanahan contributed to the Leaf's position as MVT? IF what a VP of HO does has no bearing on the Team's profitability, should his focus then be on winning the prize???
@@bobbygoodman2875 Board of governors are concerned about bottom line. The value of the team has increased substantially in the last few years, and Shanahan has been part of that. His hockey plan is to first reach the playoffs , in other words, to have very good regular seasons , which is where the money is made, firstly by selling the product to media, and then by selling seats for the most money possible to generate as much money as possible Hiring the right marketing people throughout the organization would fall under his list of chores. I have been told that the sale of merchandise throughout the country actually covers the players salaries, so that would be considered successful. Playoff success is not nearly as profitable as the NHL takes a huge chunk of the media and seat sale revenue. Playoff success is obviously desired, and although the team makes the playoffs, they are only now making further inroads . So I am sure Shanahan is not losing sleep worrying about his job. Of course, Brian Burke lost his job for looking messy at board meetings so anything can happen.
I think its insane to think its the same team if they dont ditch marner and matthews. 10 UFAs more in contract year. We need a number 1 goalie and two top 6 muscle players…. Then shore up defense with hard hitters. We just lost holl mr playoff -13 player. That alone increases chance of a cup.
Growing I was fortunate to only have to fulfil one condition. Give my folks a phone number of who i'm with and just tell them where i'll be. Abide by that and the trust grows. Only hit me halfway thru high school when I was taking off for the weekend with a new group of friends when one of them asked me 'That's all you have to do?''

Sick days…. Like, if you had chicken pox, than, sure. You’d miss school for that. But, that’s chicken pox. Maybe if your temperature in the morning was above 100, okay, stay home for that. Otherwise, not too many sick days
Shanahan has to go. I dont like this hiring. Not a huge fan of Dubas either but he was the scapegoat. And while the players need to step it up in the playoffs you cant blame them totally for losing to Florida. They ran into a hot goalie in Babrovsky. I mean they swept Carolina because of him. I just dont like this GM hiring
right for who? the BS media running interference for msle selling us this garbage? right for shanny cuz he'll do what he's told? right for fans who love reg season games and soft players? right for hard core old school guys? NO.

In Florida.

Fresh set of eyes. Great, so he can see what me and 3 million others could see for the past 5 years. Give me the job.
With several unsuccessful years in Calgary, Brad Treliving seems like a perfect fit in Toronto. ✔️

The guy is a brilliant sports mind. More than Noodles or O-Dog who both actually played in the NHL.
This whole situation is just mental. The leafs as an organization should just be embarrassed
