Today’s departing executive is former- Assistant General Manager Mark Hunter, who mutually agreed to part ways with the Leafs organization early this morning.
Truly, it was only a matter of time.
The moment Kyle Dubas was sworn in as GM, Hunter was all but gone. Now, the speculation is over. The dominoes most fans expect to fall have since fallen, meaning focus can finally be shifted towards the future. This is now officially Dubas’ team, and he’ll be given the opportunity to craft a supporting staff of his choosing.
Personally, I believe Hunter’s departure is for the best.
