This is a big fail for Dubas, make no mistake.

He chose not to upgrade the team.

Now Tampa is out of the way.

Dubas missed a shot at it, because he was too conservative.

Indeed. Should have moved Kadri to get that RHD.

Dubas was just too chickenshit to make the move.

Anyone can see this team needs radical surgery.

Hainsey, Zaitsev is begging to get rinsed again.

Dubas wouldn't pick a player to part with, in order to get the piece he needed.

Tampa is not going away, they will not get bounced two years in a row.

Dubas missed a window. No Tampa is a window. But Dubas didn't make the move to take advantage.

Next year the Loafs will beat Boston.

Only to lose to Tampa in the second round.

Thanks, Dubas. Gord Stellick 2.0

I mean, this team is pathetic.

Tavares making $11+ million.

Matthews making $11 + million.

They're invisible.

Getting shut down in their own barn, and Boston is not even breaking a sweat.

And Boston is hardly a powerhouse. One line team.

The Loafs are going nowhere fast.

The Preds had their window.

They lost.

You're not getting back to where you were, with the same team.

Poile needed to do radical surgery.

Too scared to do it.

Same as Dubas.

In Poile's defense though, he's been trying to get that 1C for a while now, it's just no one is selling.

Dubas will invoke the same excuse as to why he couldn't get a 1RHD

The Hockey Gods don't care about their excuses.

Harder to get a 1C than a 1RHD though, Poile knows. He's tried trading them and no one was offering a 1C in return. You can blame him for not being able to draft one, but they usually go in the high end picks, and they haven't been a bottom feeder for a while.

Whatever.

What I see on the Loafs is that they have several trade-able assets not in their core seven.

While at the same time they don't have the 1RHD.

That's on Dubas.

It's not my job to pry Colton Parayko out of St. Louberta.

Dubas is the Wunderkind, that's his fuckin job.
