  1. “And, those same sources indicate the immediate number one concern is igniting Auston Matthews — finding ways to get his game going.”

  2. This organization is built on spaghetti code. We need an entirely new engine to run it, not bug fixes and patches. Instead of languishing in the basement for the next decade let’s rip the bandaid off now.

  3. They were never going to fire them now. It’ll be a different story if they don’t make the playoffs or continue to struggle like this.

  4. the way the season has been going, its probably the best to keep them here. We want to finish last now.

  5. What loyalty to do we have to Treliving man? He was handpicked by a guy we also fuckin fired lmao

  6. How Trevling ever got this job after completely botching Calgary will always be a mystery to me. Sports are wild. One of the only industries where you usually get promoted after failing miserably at your last job.

  7. Yeah Masai Who actually built a championship team but not Treliving, who turned a top regular season to team to a bottom league team in just 2 years and traded away the next 2 years of picks in the process

    MLSE always has the worst ownership group who value $$ over success. Teachers pension plan to Rogers

    NHL/NBA is not like MLB where teams can just spend your way out of the problem.

  8. Best scenario is to tank this shit, get a top5 pick and bounce back next year with a new GM/Coach and different group.

    But, I’ve been a fan long enough to know we are giving the 6th pick to Boston and whoever they pick will be key in winning their 2027-2028 cup. Fuck me.

  9. So Savard, really, was the scapegoat. A bandaid. A superficial “look, we’re doing something!” gesture.

  10. More and more I think this is the year to accidentally tank. After the Olympics shut down Matthews, go for a top 5 pick. We aren’t making the playoffs, it’s not even likely to be close.

    So in the case keep Berube for now because he sucks and don’t let Brad make dumb moves.

  11. I mean you swear up and down someone isn’t being fired up until the second you announce the firing. Anything else is insanity.

  12. I feel like we hired Treliving in a time where all the other team in our division except maybe Buffalo are making smarter decisions. It stings more because we’re suddenly one of if not the worst run teams in the Atlantic

  13. if trevelling is foolish enough to believe the system Leafs run will bring any success, then he’s fooling himself. Leafs will never win anything playing like this.

  14. This is the kinda report that comes out a couple weeks before they are fired and then we hear

    “things changed when they lost to X and Y”

  15. Tre made a few good movements, but they are hugely diluted by his bad transactions.
