Today’s news has me thinking 2 things.
1. Brad Treliving is a fucking idiot.
2. Brendan Shanahan is a fucking idiot for hiring him.
3. I legitimately wonder what the team would look like had Dubas been allowed to actually do what he wanted to.
The Maple Leafs reportedly had a deal in place with the Canadiens at last year’s trade deadline to send Matthew Knies to the Montreal Canadiens, per @TheFourthPeriod
Montreal reportedly made a late approach to Toronto on deadline day, and the Leafs agreed to the move, but the trade was ultimately not filed in time before the 3 p.m. ET deadline. 😳
This is what the trade would’ve looked like.

@RMexico11@TurkeyFryerDude@dbo360x Kawasaki literally makes the fastest production motorcycle ever built and has held that record more often than any other MFG. H2R, ZX-14R, KZ900, H2 750, H1 500 ring any bells?
@hawkeye71980@DrakeMT The only thing that cheapened that run was JT’s injury. If that doesn’t happen I think the Leafs win R1. But it is the Leafs, so they may have managed to blow it anyway. Who knows
Holy crap, I just saw this still of Eli's crash, and it was so much uglier than I thought in the moment. I sure hope he is ok. I heard he did not break his neck, which seems like a miracle. It is a testament to how fit he is. My head would have popped right off for sure
@mo_gardiner Priority one is to get someone who’s system can get the puck moving up ice quick and establish possession. Last few years the rush has been non-existent.
