It’s not a fun time for anyone associated with the Leafs, but a solid action plan is needed to ensure that this team improves next season. Every radio show, podcast, tweet, blog post, and comment section will have a portion of opinions that are mostly true, and a portion of opinions that are mostly nonsense. We’ll try to stick to the truth as best we can here.
Firstly, changes are needed. Bad panic moves aren’t. If you’re going to trade Mitch Marner, you better win the deal. Disappointing playoff performances can lead a team into making horrible trades, and now more than ever, the Leafs need their front office to stay rational and level-headed.
