alright saying Keefe looked like he was facetiming us from the afterlife might be the funniest thing Steve has ever said
I thought Adam was going to die 😂
"Facetiming from the afterlife" 💀
The "you're a good hunter gatherer" is such a wholesome line in that context 🥰
He can and he will (go work for the Pens)
that comment about Keefe’s farewell video from Steve was immaculate
Adam has such a hate boner for Kyle now that he’s gone, used to love him and now all he can do is bash him. Acknowledges that burk and haxtol set pitts back 10 years but goes in on Kyle on everything he tries. He inherited a burning building and is being forced to try and rent it out
Can’t have any pitty talk on this podcast anymore without a good Dubas bashing… so tiring
Kylie Dufas ruined the Leaf franchise with his signing and player moves. I don't care if he get bashed. He deserves all criticism!
Hate Boner 😂😂
@@user-mhgu6om9mj2tblame Shanahan
People leave the Leaf organization because they realize it's a toxic gong show. They go in being positive and leave totally disgruntled.
Agreed
To go work with daddy Dubois why else 😎😂
Well at least when the guy left and was honest about why he was leaving!
I thought their comment was more like: I’m leaving a toxic dinner table to go eat a nice one.
How when all coaches are new lol.
Dubas has repeatedly said that Wes Clark was his guy to keep him in check. The guy who challenges you on things, which people need. Clark was his devils advocate, and he likely needs that still but also that may not have been as good with Tre
Dave Morrison is still with the Leafs he was promoted to Director of player personnel. He was literally at the Draft table in June.
Something we maybe should consider is that Dubas might have been awesome and since leaving things are going nowhere fast. Les might be jumping ship at the right time? Just a thought.
I would imagine Dubas was willing to pay him more, and he is fun to work with. Dubas clearly picks his guys and rides or dies with them. I imagine it's an alluring prospect when you're one of the guys in Dubas' "inner circle". IMO it's a stretch to think this has anything to do with the Leafs' future outlook as an organization.
Someone on drugs who sniffs paint might think Dubas is great. Let’s go over his successes shall we…
1) umm
End of list.
Lol what are you talking about? Dubas ran this team into the ground and made the pens worse since joining LOL 🤡
It's a great time to jump ship.
Marner is about to walk as a free agent, their cup window is closing, and the Pens are acquiring a ton of draft picks as they start their retool/redraft
@@Takhar7 lmao your so dillusional it’s crazy. Malkin is 38, Crosby is 36 but leaf’s cup window is closing when they just hired Berube?? Lol Kyle dubas is a garbage gm, leafs are better off without him
Dubas didn't nail the Tavares signing. Tavares signed himself. He wanted to be a leaf. Any gm of the leafs could have signed him
Character is everything in business.
I think there is a toxicity within the Management staff at MLSE that is being highlighted that sdpn is missing here, as well as Leaf fans. The fact Wes Clark had nothing good to say about them speaks volumes to me.
i love listening to these guys.
Steve doesn't know who lex Friedman is?
Really don't discredit how good the Johnny T contract was at the time. No big name stars wanted to come home. Literally, the biggest free agent signing the Leafs had was David Clarkson.
Why are you guys crickets on the marner turned-down offer leak?!?!
anyone with access to TSN could be a scout for the Leafs, when you have Bobby Mac throwing out gold every year it's paydirt, then for a round 7 choice just listen to craig button's first choice, usually a plug and pick them, I mean he was right with Jeff O'Neill not going first
It was kind of odd seeing Wes Clark do all those interviews at the draft. Does the guy who runs the draft always do media? I can't recall. I find myself wondering, however, if that was punishment for his pending departure 🤣 Maybe that alleged (by myself) enmity was the reason for his social media post.
You guys talk about Leaf rumours that 99 percent of the time never happen. Who is peddling woo?
Cartman: But WHY
Dave Morrison is still with the Leafs. Mostly bad draft picks during his tenure.
But who else could have spotted Matthews and Marner??
Whatever will they do..They can never truly replace him. Only move on without him.
With all our playoff success, how was this guy allowed to leave!! No loss!!
In the last 3 years, how many picks have they had for him to be successful?
@@csolivais1979 very true. Whatever will they ever do without him.
Leafs had 0 1st round picks in 2021 (with 3 total picks) and 2022, 3 total picks in 2023. But Cowan, Minten and Knies. 1 notable for each draft which is pretty good when you have to work with the leafs draft capital
I think Toronto drafts pretty well.
Why didn't Dubas Nail the Stamkos signing a year earilier? Stamkos signed with TB for less
Because Lou was the gm then
@@adamrichmond6348 Lou was never the GM but signing Stamkos although a great player would've put the team in a bigger cap hell that this one they're in now.
Slow news day? Guy nobody ever heard of left, big deal, easily replaced.
It's a very important position. Only reason you never heard him cuz he's behind the scenes
Amateur scouting is a pretty important role even if you don't pay attention to who your scouts are 😂
Knies was not Wes's pick. That was before Wes.
dont eat with people you wouldnt starve with = all money anit good money
What, exactly, did Dubas accomplish? The core is Lamorello, and the surrounding pieces are increasingly Treliving. Oh, Easton Cowan? Happy Trails Wes. You and Dubas go down with the Ancient Mariners that are the Penguins.
Dubas destroyed this team. He traded all our assets for nothing and always traded for garbage players for premium assets
Dubas is a dogwater gm. Guy destroyed the leafs and made the pens worse since taking over. 1 round win in 6 years as gm and people look at him like he’s a genius cuz he wears glasses 😂
The guys contract ended and he went with the guy he was with to begin with.
if talking about your life and experiences and having an open opinion makes for "alpha male adjacent" podcast, what do you call one where people exclusively talk about others, almost never make a point (for obvious and less obvious reasons) and would become a slimy mess when confronted by someone they were criticizing a minute ago? This used to be a productive watch or maybe I was just younger.
Thanks for all the success! Wait… one round in 10 years. Never mind. Do the same thing for Pitt please lol
@@The_ITLabrador I agree that this is a Mickey Mouse organization. That was proven by hiring Dubas who has a flawed concept of building a team. He did not represent what the fans wanted unless you’re talking about a minor subset of Millennials who think because they built a team on NHL on PS5 makes them qualified to know about hockey. Most experienced hockey fans warned that he was making a mistake and the results show that we were right. Your revisionist history reminds me of talking to my ex gf.
I bet shledone keefe is relief he doesn't have to deal with toronto traffic than the pressure being a coach
Maybe the leafs management is just that bad. 🤷♂️
If people are that willing to follow Dubas, maybe its not fun working for the leafs organization.
Adams hate boner for Kyle is beyond annoying, no respect for the fact that he took over the penguins at an awful time, where he has to try and be competitive and build for the future at the same time. Any penguins talk is immediately skippable now
Stop talking about an ex GM nobody wanted anymore, it's like breaking up with a girl and being jealous of her new BF. LMFAO
To be fair, his decisions and contracts have lead to most of the Leafs issues and pretty much every single cap issue they deal with.
You want a comparison? Stamkos and Marchessault sign in Nashville. Instead of 4x8 and 5x5.5, they sign for 6x10 and 7x7. Which means two aging players eat away over 18% of your entire cap.
And he did that TWICE. On the SAME TEAM.
Now there's blame to be placed on Shanahan, absolutely. Blame on the coach and players by not performing well, definitely. He guaranteed them a playoff spot with that level of talent and that they wouldn't have the depth (both in defense and the net) to actually win a Cup.
And Dubas' actions and decisions will continue to affect Toronto's effectiveness until Tavares' deal is done.
But even then, those contracts overvalued both Nylander and Marner, and arguably Matthews as well.
There's undoubtedly 4-6 million in dead cap where the Leafs could have gone after BOTH Matt Roy and Tanev, but they settle for one.
Wes wanted to better himself so he got an upgrade and went to a better franchise lol
Get over it 😂
Adam is such a beta 😂
Only the dead know the end of war! Woah.
Joe Rogan’s great y’all need chill. This liberal bias is going to limit your marketability.
Great? Joe Rogan is a conspiracy-theory spouting right-wing idiot
Apparently not, youre still here. Practice what you preach and unsub
im sorry his clear eyed honesty offends you
you have the wrong idea on lex lmao he speaks to leading Scientists and Researchers: Experts in fields such as artificial intelligence, neuroscience, physics, and biology.
Philosophers and Thinkers: Individuals who discuss deep questions about consciousness, ethics, and the human experience.
Entrepreneurs and Innovators: Founders and leaders in technology and business who discuss innovation, startups, and the future of technology.
Authors and Educators: Writers and educators who share insights from their work and research.
Athletes and Artists: Individuals who excel in sports, music, and other creative fields, discussing their craft and personal journeys.
Political Figures and Commentators: People involved in politics or political analysis, offering perspectives on current events and policy.
he mostly has right wing extremists, tech bros and people who were friends with jeff epstien.
The 2020 draft? Yeah, it's too darn bad that Rodion Amirov died on all of us. The nerve of that guy.
Akhtyamov was picked that year too. Niemelä could still become that RD we've been looking for, kinda too early to judge that draft class.
Six 6th-7th rounders they picked that year as well, who knows with those.
Have fun with a dying product with the Pens...
Who cares lol
If you can trade Gretzky , you can lose Clarke lol
C'mon!!
He was a plant the whole time... secretly working for the Pens. Thier 1st round pick was suspiciously bad this year...LoL
I can’t believe that the SDPD Podcast is trashing Joe Rogan. Must be because Joe was laughing at the F Trudeau chant at UFC. 😂. Rogan has changed the world. Like him or hate him, he is the biggest voice today. Not only that, but if Rogan would ever interview a NHL star like McDavid, SDPN would fanboy him so bad, it would be embarrassing.
He got a better job with a higher salary. Duh.
I’m not a leafs fan but I think leafs fans should be happy to not have Dubas he’s a literal joke of a GM. He trades for Karlsson to bolster the pens and that same year when they’re a little out of a playoff spot they trade away one of their best players (who’s not even 30) and now this offseason he signs older guys again to try and make playoffs? All he does is get players and staff he’s familiar with. Penguins fans have some rough years ahead I’m willing to say they won’t make playoffs for a long long time
Dubas is a joke, guys completely destroyed the leafs
@@The_ITLabrador so he went all in for a playoff push. They went firm 1 point out to 10 points out. Great playoff push bro
@@The_ITLabrador buddy as long as Sid, malkin, letang, and karlsson are on the team they aren’t rebuilding and they just traded for Kevin Hayes. They shouldnt have traded Jake guentzle if they wanna keep going for it. They aren’t going for a rebuild although they should be and should have 3 years ago you say I should do my research maybe you should
@@The_ITLabrador now they’re not rebuilding and not good enough for playoffs good work Dubas and hextall is bad too but hey atleast you guys got your cups my team never even makes the playoffs
Dubas should be paying rent for how much space he occupies in Adam’s brain.
DUFAS is a bad GM for the Leafs. He deserves all the criticism.
@@user-mhgu6om9mj2t cry.
Adam and Steve are clowns
Pretty rich Dangle and Wylde mocking Rogan for being alpha. Adam Wylde has some of the most woke lefty takes.
Stick to hockey.
Vote with you wallet and watch time. I'm unsubbing right now. I also can't stand they're attempts at humour . These guys irritate me .
Bye
This bum wasn’t worth it. PERIOD
Um no he realized working for the Leaf wasn't worth it.
these guys clearly have no idea what lex friedman is actually like
If you are from Toronto? Sir Leaf nation is EVERYWHERE . We know who Wes is. Goid riddance. Leafs should take the best head scout in the NHL for any franchise and steal them. Double their salary. Use that financial might.
Glad this poser is gone. He had 57 picks and only Knies and Cowan are worth anything.
Why you so pissy?
All but about 5 of those picks were in round four and later. Dubas is the poser that is gone, IMO.
Hard to hit on picks when dubas trades them all away
