Thread: Fire Dubas
Critiquing whatever this jumbo was:


Lets revisit Kyle Dubas transactions as GM, he dug a hole early by signing unproven players to mid term contracts pretty much the worst outcome, either sign for 8 or bridge, he choose otherwise... <strong>Most signings were excellent signings. Marner only one that could have been done at a lower AAV or longer term
</strong>
Signed JT to an 11 mill aav, I like the signing not the cap hit but overall good signing ... <strong>Free agent premium Signings of course its going to be above cap</strong>

Traded away Matt Martin who remains in the league on a good team..<strong>. No way you suppor this signing brudda..</strong>

Waived 2 Goaltenders to make way for Sparks only to watch C Mac win a cup in Tampa ... <strong>Fluke as Mc outperformed and Sparks unfortuante with bad luck</strong>

Botched the Nylander signing took way to long in the end a good signing ... <strong>Great signing but could have been done earlier</strong>

Traded for Muzzin, great trade

Signed AM34, while a no brainer Dubas got schooled. Sign to 8 year or hold to a bridge player has no leverage and he's never signing more then McDavid. Stupid precedent set for Marner. <strong>Done before offseason and eliminated risk of offersheet</strong>

Traded a 1st round pick and Marleau to save cap space, complete idiot. ... <strong>Agree dubas worse move</strong>

Signed Kapp and Johnnson to decent deals could have squeezed them more

Resigned Marincin WTF... <strong>whatever</strong>

Signed Spezza, has turned out to be gold. Give all the credit here to spezza.

Traded away Zeitzev and Brown for nothing all because Dubas doesn't know hockey. How good would connor brown look now on our team and he would have signed a reasonable 8 year deal to stay a Leaf... <strong>Zaitsev was the wrose contract in the league you pig it the ask to get rid of him would have been so much worse. </strong>

Trade away Kadri for Tyson Barrie and Kerfoot, this was the tipping point of Leaf failures.<strong>.. Good trade at the time and kadri time was up due to playoff blunders.. Barrie jsut didnt work out</strong>

Leafs Sign Marner to the most ridiculous contract in Leaf history and then Dubas proclaims Marner will be Bronze statue one day...<strong>wont even get into it</strong>

Traded for Jack Campbell, looks like one of few good decisions.

Trade away Kapanen for nothing ... <strong>farted at the fact that you think the return is nothing...</strong>

Sign TJ Brodie as a FA looks like a good signing

Sign Zach Bogosian as FA was a great depth signing but let him walk after 1 year ... <strong>bogosian had no part in returning to play in canada as he came out and said. </strong>

Trade Johnnson for nothing..<strong>. hes very poor</strong>

Spent the last part of last year forcing Sandin into the lineup to find out if he can replace Reilly, and continue to force him in the first Round Loss part due to his terrible play...<strong> huh?</strong>

Traded big for Nick Foligno and well never know how that could have worked out



Overall... you might be the biggest R on the platform G

Thread: 2019 - 20 GM Game - News and Important Info Thread
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>hanson493</b></div><div>Good Morning Everyone,

First bit of news, after discussing with <a href="/users/Rodzikhockey93" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Rodzikhockey93</a>, he will be switching roles with his agm <a href="/users/NR1203" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@NR1203</a> due to his current inactivity in the game. Donny has not been fired, he has not quit, he has just stepped down as gm for the time being. This also means Donny is officially an agm and can choose to be an agm for whichever team he would like... and obviously Nanda (nram1203 on twitter) has been promoted to take over the team. This will act as a trial run for Nanda to see if he has what it takes to be a gm for gm game and similar to arizona, he will have all accepted trades approved by bog until we know he will be all good on his own. He is currently working on getting the page set up, and will be taking a couple days to assess what direction he would like to take the team and what the best way to do that will be.

Donny let us know when you have time again and we will see whats available for gm positions at that time and go from there.

Everyone else make sure you follow nanda on twitter, drop him a message etc, as he will be the new buffalo gm.

Last bit of news, we are discussing the RFA/UFA extensions and what the best way to proceed is. Stay tuned for more info likely to follow this current week.</div></div>

Thank you for the cooperation and understanding,

Will Hopefully become more involved in the game again by next season. Will keep involved in the community and looking at the progression in the game. In the event a new mode has occurred such as a V5. I would like to be notified
