Thread: Skipping A Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FoxYou727</b></div><div>here is my take:

Toronto made the right move moving on from Lou when they did 100% still I feel if Dubas was under Lou wing for another year it would of done wonders no doubt in my mind. I think Dubas, Shanahan and MLSE choice to sign JT was due to wanting to make a big splash to start off the Dubas era. But like everyone told leafs fans in 2018 there biggest problem was defense and the core 4 of Kadri, Matthews, Marner and Nylander would be a top 5/10 core. It forced Kadri to be traded for Barrie who should of been a top 4 dman but failed and would leave a year later. Tavares should of not gotten the C and should honestly be stripped of it to send a message to him and it was apparent in that Montreal series. Morgan Rielly should be the choice imo</div></div>

Yea they rushed the rebuild. Ideally this team still has Kadri, Hyman and drafted Jarvis. But that required patience and foresight. Dubas got wide-eyed and signed Tavares without thinking about the consequences. He made the same mistake in Pittsburgh bringing in Karlsson when Letang is still on the team. He's just not a good GM. Shanahan made a poor choice hiring him and giving him the keys.

But, I still think the Matthews era is salvageable. These next two offseasons are key. Treliving is going to have to pull a rabbit out of a hat more than once.
