I come to bury Ceasar not to praise them.
When you spend nearly half of your cap on big offense players and they fall apart and produce very little in the second round. Its time for a change.
Seeing the leafs go out like this after their fans saw their curse lifted on first round exits only to stumble and fall doesn't give me any pleasure.
Wait what am I saying.
That's a lie.
With Dubas' at the end of his contract, and the AGM and Shanny at the end of their contract. This era of the leafs is over.
Keefe isn't coming back, not after the dive the leaf's took in the second round and how bad they looked defending.
They could bring the team back next year, they really could, they'd be at zero cap space, but it'd be easy. But the year after that armaggedon starts.
Its time to clear the decks for a new GM with a new vision.
All I know is, that core doesn't function its time to change it up.
But I'm happy that the Leafs are out, now can they please take the stank of the Oilers with them.
Goodbye, Kyle Dubas
Though I never knew you at all
You had the excel skills yourself
While those around you won
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you spazz like a child.
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a burning Leaf in the wind
Never knowing how to win
When the payoffs set in
And I wouldn't want to be you
But You were just a stupid kid
Your career prospects burned out long before
The playoffs ever did
