The Florida Panthers goalie also gives ex-Toronto Maple Leafs’ GM Kyle Dubas an excuse for failure
Kyle Dubas is in the bull’s-eye position here. While the Leafs look for a new GM and Dubas tries to figure out how to make it okay to look for a new job, there’s time for a ruthless assessment of his run in Toronto.
Just once, I would love a team to ask fans to apply and pick a name out of a hat. Just to see how much of this is science, how much is art, and how much is smoke. I suspect it’s at least 75-per-cent smoke. The black swan works for Dubas and his former players. What do you think the Leafs are saying to themselves right now? It isn’t, “We messed up. We need to make a real change in our lives.”Then there’s always the black swan to come. Even if the Leafs do nothing this off-season, they can tell themselves, “Maybe Matt Murray is the Bobrovsky of the 2024 playoffs? Only way to know for sure is to try.”It’s why the NHL keeps recycling the same executives and coaches.
When the Leafs say they want someone “experienced” to replace Dubas, that’s the sort of person they’re talking about.
