@NHLRumourReport Guaranteed if you went back 10 years you’d get an equal number of ‘experts’ who said Laine over Matthews. Which is to say that these guys don’t know anymore than the dude on the next bar stool.

Frank Seravalli: Re NHL draft: A number of teams that I've talked to, no fewer than three, have said if they had the #1 pick, Ivar Stenberg would be their guy; I still think it's probably more likely than not that the Leafs end up going with Gavin McKenna - FAN Pregame (5/7)

@mirtle Remind me again what the @MapleLeafs got for Dewar? A bag of magic beans?
English
Penguins sign Connor Dewar to two-year extension at $2.25M AAV.
English
A reminder that Connor Timmins, one of Buffalo’s top six d-men in these playoffs, was basically given away by Brad Treliving for nothing. #LeafsForever
English
@CraigSMorgan As others have pointed out, if GB was going to rig the lottery, why not Chicago, NYR, San Jose, or Florida? Why Toronto?
English
Oh, look, the Maple Leafs are in the NHL Draft Lottery and they have won the NHL Draft Lottery.
I am shocked, I tell you. Shocked.
English
@JeffVeillette Serious trepidation about Chayka galaxy-braining this and bypassing McKenna. Plus, do you really want your organizational future being coached by Berube?
English
Fair, and the correct public answer, but there’s really only one sensible answer here
Chris Johnston@reporterchris
John Chayka says he can honestly claim not to know who the #leafs will draft at No. 1: "We haven't had scouting meetings yet. Second day on the job."
English
@Sportsnet @FriedgeHNIC It’s always sad to see a seemingly solid, experienced journalist like EF completely toss his integrity out the window in order to do his master’s bidding.
English
"We want to get a job done here… We're going to focus on our team and what we can control."
John Chayka tells @FriedgeHNIC that he isn’t worried about outside criticism of his hiring as the new Maple Leafs GM.

@NHLRumourReport This is the type of nonsense that makes fans dislike the media:
“Hey Brady, are you happy playing in Ottawa?”
“Yes!”
“Are youuuuu suuuure?”

David Pagnotta: Re Brady Tkachuk/Senators: I'm certain he's being honest that he's been committed to the team and the city...and I'm not confident that he'll be a Sen next season - Daily Faceoff Live (4/30)
English
@DailyFaceoff As I was just saying…McAvoy just piling up the cheap, dirty crap tonight. This is McSorley-Brashear level nonsense.
English
Charlie McAvoy was not happy with Zach Benson
🎥: ESPN
English
@NHL @espn @Sportsnet @TVASports Sabres were obviously complaining about McAvoy’s elbow on Doan, but the @espn guys missed it.
English
THAT'S A BIG GOAL FOR BUFFALO 👏
What an effort from Josh Doan to find Zach Benson! #StanleyCup
🇺🇸: @espn
🇨🇦: @Sportsnet & @TVASports 2
English
@spittinchiclets McAvoy likes to complain about playing hurt, and then delivers a brutal cheap elbow here.
English
JOSH DOAN WITH A MONSTER FORECHECK AND TEES UP BENSON FOR THE 2 GOAL LEAD!
English
@JeffVeillette They’ll use video replay to review plays that are millimeters offside, but won’t use it for obvious infractions like this that somehow all four officials missed.
English
You would think this would be the easiest double minor in history, and yet
Sportsnet@Sportsnet
Brayden Point needed some repairs after Mike Matheson's stick catches him up high
English
Why did Jack Michaels keep calling this a major upset? The @EdmontonOilers finished one point ahead of the Ducks. #LetsGoOilers
English
@Woll4Vezina If true, this is just awful in about a thousand different ways
English
Neil Glassberg who esteemed hockey genius Keith Pelley hired to run the #LeafsForever GM search, is the agent for soon to be GM, John Chayka, who is good friends with Tie Domi who will reportedly work with the team in some capacity.
Complete utter corruption. #Leafs
English
@MapleLeafsHS Agreed. If this is the direction of the franchise, I would have serious concerns.
English
Totally mystified as to how Tie Domi has ended up with any sway in the decision of who should run the Maple Leafs.
Willyston Riellander@nylanderthews
English
In various discussions this am, it appears there is still work to be done on the Leafs search and it's unlikely an announcement will happen this week.
English
Given his history, and especially his history in the playoffs, this is hilarious. Another check for the "you are not consistent" box.
NHL Player Safety@NHLPlayerSafety
Dallas’ Jamie Benn has been fined $2,604.17, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for cross-checking Minnesota’s Ryan Hartman.
English
For ownership on how screwed they are with Stan Bowman running the show?
Jim Matheson@jimmathesonnhl
Frederic scratched in biggest game of season is wake-up call
English
Brad Treliving essentially unloaded both Connor Dewar and Connor Timmins for nothing and now both are playing significant roles with playoff teams. BT’s asset management was abysmal. #LeafsForever
English
@JeffVeillette Of course you’re right Jeff. I was in my mid thirties during the Pat Quinn/Sundin era, and certainly have clear memories of Sundin hearing the same “lazy player/terrible leader” stuff that 34/88 hear today. And that Leafs dressing room was disjointed at the best of times.
English
This is absolutely not what the talk was back then. People used to accuse Sundin of phoning it in with the Leafs to save himself for Sweden, like they do with Nylander and Matthews now. And several of the guys mentioned were rumoured to have locker room issues with each other lol
Fandom Empire@FandomEmpire_
No they 100% didn’t I don’t recall an era led by Sundin, Roberts, Thomas, Mogilny, Tucker, Corson, Domi getting complaints about lack of effort. Sundin’s give a shit meter was miles higher than anyone currently on the team.
English
@yyzsportsmedia This whole “Shhh, let’s see what Mats says” saga seems just bizarre to me. He lives in Stockholm, he hasn’t been around the NHL in twenty years, and has zero management experience. What’s the big enticement here?
English
This happens a lot. But I will say it anyway. If Sundin or any other player with literally NO management experience whatsoever has a role with the Leafs greater than advisor, etc. ( & I don't care what the title is), I will be STUNNED.
