You know what?! Good for Mitch.

Treliving let this guy go. He is excelling in a new environment. Toronto media and fans are toxic as hell.

Good for him. Go get a chip.

[Ryan @RJH1985]

@NHL_Muse Schaefer 100%. He has the offensive skill, but also the defensive skill. That is a cornerstone player

[Ryan @RJH1985]

I think this kid is the kind of guy that hears the "Stenberg is better" talk and it drives him SO hard to leave no questions. This is the guy you build around.

Gavin McKenna is a dawg on the Wingate bike

The best score among all athletes today 👀

Spitballing here.

Does a Reilly for Nurse swap make sense for both teams?

Leafs taking on the bigger cap hit so they get an additional pick/prospect?

Both need change. Leafs need to be “tougher”

Makes sense to me.

Nurse and Beau Akey for Rielly and I’d be happy.

ALRIGHT STOP THE COUNT, MCKENNA TO TORONTO IS GOING TO BE GLORIOUS!

[Leafslatest @Leafslatest]

Gavin McKenna says going to a Canadian market would be pretty special for him, also saying he’d be “pretty fortunate” to end up a Maple Leaf, given where they finished in the standings over the last decade (off year last year).

“Going to a Canadian market would be pretty special. The situation the Toronto Maple Leafs are in right now, it’s pretty crazy that they got the first overall pick, their team is probably going to be fighting for the playoffs next year. I’d be pretty fortunate to go there.”

@TheCynick @Leafslatest If it was Cowan and a first? I would do that trade all day long. 2027 1st and Cowan for Larkin with no retention? Sign me up every day of the week. It would be MUCH more.

[Ryan @RJH1985]

The fact that Friedman hasn’t actually reported that Carle is out, being employed by the same company as the Leafs, gives me some sort of hope.

If it’s not him, my guess is Laviolette, or possibly Gruden.

[Ryan @RJH1985]

@MLBTheShow My guess would be Bleday or Sanchez

[Ryan @RJH1985]

Big right handed Centre
Swedish Ties
Two Way Player
32 Points in 51 games in SHL

Wouldn't hate that for Leafs 3C

@JFreshHockey Can you do Tommy Bleyl?

[Ryan @RJH1985]

So the Leafs hired a guy who worked closely with David Carle, and a guy who is brothers of one of the biggest trade bait candidates?

Say less.

[Ryan @RJH1985]

@Leafslatest Weird how Carle and Brackett have been together in the U20 team twice in the last 3 years and no one is connecting the dots.

[Ryan @RJH1985]

@theonlytrizz @PierreVLeBrun I don’t think this is a “by chance” hire.

[Ryan @RJH1985]

5 finalists? But yesterday they had only talked to 2 known candidates (Van Ryn and Lalonde.) Woodcroft was reported than not. Carle was announced then he declined apparently.

So who are the 5?

My guess is

1. Carle
2. Woodcroft
3. Laviolette
4. Cassidy
5. Gruden

[Ryan @RJH1985]

Can anyone explain to me why David Carle only follows ONE NHL team on X and it is the Leafs?

Anyone?

[Ryan @RJH1985]

You know what ALL of this reminds me of?

When Tavares was about to become a Leaf and everyone was like “we’ve been told he’s not coming” and they started employing people close to John.

Just saying.

[Leafslatest @Leafslatest]

🚨 Maple Leafs management has reportedly spoken with University of Denver head coach David Carle, but that’s about as far as things have gotten.

No formal interview between sides has taken place, per @TheFourthPeriod

@ATLAS__Flare Head coach David Carle

[Ryan @RJH1985]

Ohhhh I could think of a PRETTY good reason that Brackett would be coming to Toronto.

[gearshift @GearshiftMike]

Explain to me why people are cosplaying as excited fans for a Brackett hire suddenly. The enthusiasm feels so fake.

His draft history is ho-hum so…we’re excited for him to be AGM why?

#Leafs

[Ryan @RJH1985]

Judd Brackett and David Carle in the same week?!

Ohhhh baby. Leafs really heading in the right direction.
