In each of the last two springs, I’ve done a piece-by-piece review of every NHL-relevant move Kyle Dubas did as general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs. The first one covered his first year; the second one took place in the COVID-imposed season pause last March, when we had little else to do but twiddle our thumbs and brace for plague. This means that, unfortunately, the Toronto Maple Leafs have managed the rare feat of two disappointing playoff exits in one year. A special achievement, but if any franchise were going to pull it off, you’d probably bet it’d be ours.
