The Official Post-Bitch 2025-26 Regular Season Thread

Mats knows what it is like to be a star and Captain of the Leafs while the fans and media hate on you.

I think he can insulate the team and core players a bit.

Shanahan was a star player but didn't know the environment. Mats does.
 
Dregs said today he's heard they're not all that close to hiring anyone, probably no announcement next week. They've interviewed so many people (mostly agms) that it's not even worth going through each one, and the interviews don't appear to be done.

It sounds like they're just casting a really wide net right now. But they did talk to Gillis and Chayka before Tre was even fired so it does make sense they'd be high on the list.

Tldr: They're overcorrecting for shanny interviewing two people last time.
 
Fucking hell, this guy's only job before this nepo hire was first as an assistant coach and then moving up to President of the Markham Royals team in the OJ.

Yes, his father owns them. So Spencer Hyman, "future NHL management type", has only ever gotten a job in hockey through nepotism.
