I’d never have predicted that level of honesty and detail from Shanny but he laid that shit out as clear as day. There was healthy dash of “fuck around and find out” sprinkled on that presser and frankly I can’t fault him. I feel more confident about our future than 20 mins ago.

How ironic that Kyle Dubas' tenure ends because he misplayed a contract negotiation.

Been a crazy couple of days. Really excited about the opportunity to work with Dave Nonis, @brendanshanahan & the entire @MapleLeafs staff.

Another curveball in the Dubas/Leafs situation: Brendan Shanahan says he got an email from Dubas on Thursday night indicating he wanted to stay on as GM. However, Dubas's agent had also come back requesting a pay bump on the #leafs offer, per BS. Shanahan then fired Dubas.

Also: Hearing #Flames have reconsidered their approach w former GM Brad Treliving, after our report last week, and will not get in the way if any future employment opportunity arises before his contract expires on June 30.Ahem, an important development with #LeafsForever news.

Frankly stunning to hear the team’s president praise Dubas’ decisions from over a year’s span, but let a few days of non-hockey related decisions determine the future of the organization
