What an absolute beauty, he should be getting standing ovations every game. Hopefully, the Leafs can take advantage of the extra cap space from his hometown discount.
And like another poster said, there is one particular poster that HATES that deal.
Not me!! š
Donāt get me wrong UG, thatās my point, Iām thinking Shanny called it āhis teamā too soon, even if he was the president.
Or a lack of loyalty from Shanahan towards Lou. Shanahan thought he had the boy wonder when he picked Dubas. Or knew he could control him as a puppet GM. He went with the spreadsheets instead of the experience of a multiple time Cup champion HHOF builder.
Lou was manager of the year, at least once if not twice with the NYI. If he stayed, the Leafs would have been better and gone further. Canāt say theyād win for sure but a better chances for sure. He wouldnāt have played games with the stupid contracts or allow the country club to control the team.
Iād bring him back today to rebuild this team properly as hockey president.
I donāt know, believe what you want but I just think itās a lot simpler.
Shanny just couldnāt lean on the guy who drafted him when it came to the team he was running. Itās like expecting dad to take care of your house. lol
Shanahan pushed Lou out the door because he refused go learn from the expert. That was the beginning of the end, already then.
Doughty was always right about this team. 100%.
There is a bitterness there, they both started the same year.
Lou became GM of NJ 87-88 (year 1 lol) and it was him who drafted Shanny who started playing the same year lol.
Shanny couldnāt take it again in Toronto lol
Leafs get a point!
Lol
Youāre bang on. One of my favourite players turned into one of my most hated executives. Shanny set us back, big time.
A great player wanted to be the great office man I get it, but he didnāt learn first. He could have sat back there, when he started, take it all in from who he got to begin with, and heād be still running them now in a way we canāt even think of.
hopefully the Leafs can muster a few more shot on net.
Still at 9ā¦ fuck sakes boysā¦ shoot the fucking puck more
