ESPN’s Ryan S Clark and Kristen SheltonThe Toronto Maple Leafs finally made it past the first round but fell in five games to the Florida Panthers. There are some big decisions in this off season.
GM Kyle Dubas’ contract expires. Are they going to take him back and/or does he want to go back? If he brings in a new person, will that person want to make bigger changes?
Outstanding UFAs include Alex Kerfoot, David fightsAnd Ryan O’Reilly And Michael Bunting. Goalkeeper Ilya Samsonov is RFA.
The bigger question is, do they bring back the substance – Austin MathewsAnd Mitch MarnerAnd John TavaresAnd William Nylander? They have great regular season numbers but the playoffs were a different story.
NHL.com’s Mike ZeisbergerWill the main team return next season? Kyle Dubas does not have a contract. His turn at Deadline brought on Ryan O’Reilly, Noel AccariAnd Sam LaffertyAnd Jake McCabe and lok shin.
Auston Matthews has a year left on his contract, and would he be interested in a contract extension? What General Motors will negotiate with him on the first of July? Matthews scored 0 goals in the second round.
Sportsnet: Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner at their core.
