Description

No GM is perfect and under Kyle Dubas, the Leafs have certainly transformed into a highly rated team in the league. However, even with his great work, there have been some misses. Those include the Kadri trade, not trading Frederik Andersen and not acquiring MacKenzie Weegar.

Do you guys think this skater group is strong enough to win the cup?

sheary over there acting like a WSH enforcer.

at least he stuck up for himself last game. When he played for the penguins he just left with his tail tucked between his legs.

I don't think Dubas is ever going to win a cup. He really doesn't have solutions. He patches crater size potholes with random garbage and considers the job done.

Weegar wasn't going to be traded anyway, just a rumor

The FWDs TOR has now is fine. Kardi over Kerfoot would be a huge improvement, but Kadri's time in TOR was done.

Weegar is the big add and changes the d-corps a lot. Adding a cheap Norris caliber d-man makes any team better. Just need the goalies to do their part.

At the time, the Kadri trade was good. We got our RHD and a replacement 3C and they got a good 2C. Even though Barrie didn’t work out, Kerfoot has been solid. And even though we lost that trade it’s not that bad.

No one could’ve predicted the season Mackenzie Weegar would have. For all we know, it could be a one time thing. (hopefully not though. I like the guy)

The Freddie trade should’ve happened though, I liked it when I first heard about it. But Dubas believed in his goalie and that’s all we can really ask for from management for a team and their players.
