"Who are the Toronto Maple Leafs this year? Are they a team that is just underperforming? Are they a team that is poorly coached and managed? Or are they just a team that got off to a bad start and their division is too good to battle back? If they played in the Pacific Division, they'd be a playoff team"
"However, it doesn't really matter what we (the fanbase) believe, as the only people who can make this decision is MLSE's Board of Directors. You'd think that GM Brad Treliving will have the final say on whether or not he wants to buy or sell at the deadline, but President and CEO Keith Pelley will unfortunately be making that call."
The Toronto Maple Leafs are on a two-week break before a short sprint to season end. The team sits in a competitive Atlantic Division and has similar points to top Western clubs, fueling debate on competitiveness and potential roster direction. MLSE's Board of Directors, led by President and CEO Keith Pelley, will control buy-or-sell deadline decisions despite general expectations of GM Brad Treliving managing moves. The team faces potential trades of key assets and uncertainty in goaltending depth as Anthony Stolarz's injury return complicates Dennis Hildeby's emergence and Joseph Woll's role. A final roster and goaltending strategy may await the March deadline.
