Never a Dull Moment: Mike Augello Joins the Ladies to Dissect the Dramatic Departure of Kyle Dubas and What’s Next for the Leafs!

Some big and surprising news from the Leafs with President Brendan Shanahan announcing in a Friday afternoon press conference, that Kyle Dubas will not be returning as General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

We welcome back to the show our Ladies Talkin’ Leafs Insider Mike Augello to help us make sense of all the chaos! With Mike's help we attempt to dissect the timeline that lead to Dubas's demise. Then we get his perspective on some of the candidates that may be available to take the helm. No doubt there there is no time to waste! With Auston Matthews waiting in the wings, time is of the essence if the club wants to get his signature on the dotted line on July 1st! 

This is a make it or break it moment for Shanahan and MLSE, and we'll have to wait to see if his gut instinct pays off. He hired Dubas as a 27 year old, after firing one the highest regarded GM's in league history on a hunch too! We think we can all agree, despite playoff rounds that ended earlier than we all would have liked, for the most part, its been a pretty successful run.

The next few weeks will be very telling, and we hope that we'll know the direction the Leafs' will be going in the next few weeks. We'll be reverting back to our regular twice monthly schedule, but if another bombshell drops we'll have you covered with another bonus episode. In the meantime, we wait. Go Leafs Go!
