Summary

Jeff and Greg discuss if Brad Treliving is a good fit with the Maple Leafs, what his downfall in Calgary may have been and why the Matthew Tkachuk trade isn’t a template for re-building a team. Next, the guys weigh in on how Treliving’s time with the Flames helps certain aspects in managing in Toronto, not having time on his side for big decisions and how Brendan Shanahan figures into everything. Finishing up, they look at Sheldon Keefe’s future, Auston Matthews potential feeling on an extension with a new GM and the Cup Final having two American superstars at the forefront. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
