@joeyferg Thats a cup team brotha

McKenna Matthews Nylander Knies Jenner Cowan Maccelli Tavares Arvidsson Domi Groulx Lorentz OEL Hamilton McCabe Tanev Shea Carlo Woll Hildeby With a good coach this team makes the Playoffs, if you think otherwise you simply lack Passion

@reporterchris @TheAthletic Disappointed. What a fabricated made up article. I use to enjoy getting info from CJ.

New, for @TheAthletic: Auston Matthews isn't yet sure if he'll be back in Toronto next season. The Maple Leafs are on the clock with their captain 🔗⬇️ nytimes.com/athletic/72539… nytimes.com/athletic/72539…

@frank_seravalli @Buccigross Your brother Fronk has way better takes.

First run at the top five in my 2026 #NHLDraft mock. I have the #Canucks taking Gavin McKenna at No. 3. Details: hockey247.com/2026/05/06/fra…

@ryanwhitney6 What happens if Chayka and Doaner break bread? Will you guys get Chayka on the pod?

Still can’t get over this. Cinema

@ldl716 In Chayka we trust

AWESOME (am I starting to like Chayka)

@LeafsPassion85 @capsboybebop Bingo

@capsboybebop What about an organization that just had one bad year after making the playoffs for a decade straight…. And already has Matthews, Nylander, Knies, Tavares and Cowan?

mckenna is not generational and won’t immediately fix a bad organization

@mickey_canuck Al’s brother

Mats Sundin has been back in the building for just over 24 hours and the Leafs are already back to being a winning franchise. Toronto, you’re on the clock.

@SamAMcKee The goat

Add this fellow to your Level of Concern segment.

@TSN_Sports @TSNHockey Chayka hacks the servers and gets the buds the first overall pick. Now that’s the analytics driven leader keith pelley was talking about. Whammyyyy.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have won the 2026 NHL Draft Lottery and will select No. 1 overall! 🙌 Who will they select with the top pick? #NHLDraft

@MikeGrinnell_ Johnny Chayka uses analytics to rigg the draft. What a legend.

This sucks. The Leafs. What the fuck

@mcclusk Bingo

On Steve Simmons... I have no issue with the premise of his question, asked cordially. For example: "Based on my research, it seems John Chayka's a polarizing figure around the league. In fact, most of the people I talked to were surprised by your decision to hire him. Can you elaborate on your due diligence process and share your perspective on the incidents which led to punishment from the league?" I mean, that's a heater as written. I have an issue with calling John Chayka a liar and a con man, as corroborated by 19 of 20 anonymous sources. I have an issue with an experienced journalist hijacking the press conference, turning it into a spectacle about an uncommonly explosive question. Especially in this setting. I think it's a disservice to the staff and the fan base. The biggest issue I have, though, is that he directed the question to Keith Pelley. John Chayka is sitting right next to him. If you want to call the guy a liar and a con man, at least have the courtesy to say it to him directly. The problem is... it's a lot like when a Karen starts an argument with an employee at a Best Buy. Karen has no obligation to conduct herself in any particular way - she's free to fly off the handle. The employees are wearing a uniform. There are customers in the store. They don't have the same luxury. It's a gutless exchange. Par for the course from Steve Simmons.

@Jay_D_Rosehill All the alumni big dogs sitting in the front row too, What a statement that is. I am optimistic.

Even with all the negativity around today and that press conference, I think Mats Sundin is going to be phenomenal in Toronto.

@ldl716 You see the alumni support in the front row of that presser though? That’s the biggest takeaway for me.

1. I am no Steve Simmons fan 2. It was a great/valid question for a unanimously controversial hire 3. No one else had the balls to ask it but everyone was thinking it 4. Hilarious some are dumping on it after criticizing TO reporters of constant soft balls. Only cuz it’s SS

@spittinchiclets Biggest takeaway from this presser is the fact that Chayka not only has Mats Sundin behind him but some of the most notable alumni sitting in the front row in Tucker, Gilmour and Wendel Clark. There is something people are missing here. That makes me optimistic.

Toronto is hockey cinema even when they’re out of the playoffs

@PenguinsJesus All over them

Vibe check, how we doing?

@mattmurley19 @spittinchiclets Lol so true. Hilarious

Who did it better?

@PenguinsJesus Tommy Novak needs to hit the weight room too

I’ve seen enough of Elmer Soderblom doing spinoramas and blind passing to nowhere. I’ve seen enough of Solovyov trying to possess down low. Arturs Silovs is bailing out all of these insanely terrible plays.

@ldl716 @reporterchris Isnt the point that its not conclusive so the call on the ice should stand? What was the call on the ice, does anyone know?

@reporterchris I can’t believe ppl saying not definitive lol. Use a little math and your eyes. The puck was over the line. It’s definitive from what we can see. Just because Jarry’s skate blade was over top of the puck doesn’t negate that fact.

@thegoldenmuzzy So true. Why do they switch the rules whenever they want

This crossed the line, too Goodnight ✌️
