I think Chayka might try a couple of different trades to get closer to the defense we need.
Toronto trades Villeneuve and Rielly
To
Los Angeles for Drew Dougherty (25% retained salary)
Dougherty is UFA at the end of the year so don't have to resign him, better than stuck with Rielly for three more years.
If Rielly refuses give him the Trouba treatment.
Put him on waivers and make him go to Marlies or waive his no trade.
He is a bum, he knows it and is using his no-trade class to hide behind his terrible play.
He looks and acts scared on the ice to make a mistake, because he has made so many of them over the past three years.
If that trade goes through,
Toronto trades Chadwick, Dakota Joshua and 3rd in 2028
To
Calgary for Whitecloud
A bit of an overpayment but good return with size, toughness and will to win.

Doughty?
He was washed 2 years ago…
Flames laugh off that package
2.) 18 Oct 2026 17:54:14
You think that’s an overpayment for Whitecloud?? Calgary hangs up on that offer.
04 Oct 2026 00:03:42
Toronto trades
Rielly & Miles Wood
To
Vancouver for 4th in 2027 & Defense prospect
Toronto then trades
Danforth, Luc-Kolbar, Colorado 1st in 2027
To
Detroit for Simon Edvinsson
Sign Edvinsson to 7 yrs 9 million
01 Oct 2026 01:42:02
Chayka,
You had no problem trading Lives. Please get rid of Rielly as he is making Raddyish look very bad.
Toronto trades
Morgan the Bum Rielly, and a prospect
To Seattle
For Vince Dunn.

If Raddysh is as good as people say he is, Mo isn't making him look bad.
I actually think Mo has been better on the top pair.

I've been barking about getting Reilly's stock up high enough this year that hopefully at some point we could 1-for-1 it.
Hell, if they can get a 1st for OEL somewhere else, I'd be ok with packaging Reilly, COLs 1st, and the 1st from OEL for both Dunn and Wright.
Now, the Leafs would still need to figure out another LHD if OEL goes, but I think we're still a net upgrade after such a deal.
3.) 01 Oct 2026 15:57:09
LL, Let's not forget that Rad had Kich down low or off to the side feeding him. Kuch created ample space for Raddysh whereas Matthews is down low/off to the same side looking more for the one timer.
Feeding Raddy from the Left D is a hard, dangerous pass, something Morgan imo is weak at: passes and holding the line when the bodychecks are incoming on him.
Maybe Matthews needs to open up the down low and trust Raddy to find a sweet spot where his boomer can become more available from the backend.
Psssst not saying Matthews has to do that all the time because if he sees the shot, he will take it.
Imo, I wouldn't mind seeing Gavin on the pp, setting up where Kucherov did letting Matthews just zoom around, find space and leave space for others.
Raddy's boomer has to be implemented more often.
4.) 01 Oct 2026 16:39:47
They blamed Raddysh for the goals against Montreal. Ffs Reilly was just standing still on those two goals. He is terrible and needs to go at any cost.
5.) 01 Oct 2026 18:15:52
@Thatguy I agree completely on that TB PP being very different. Nobody on the Leafs PP will ever be Kuch and it did help a lot.
I'd also like to see that shot coming in more, but I want JT off that 1st PP. He just had not handled it well through two games imo.
6.) 01 Oct 2026 19:32:09
@LL Swap JT with McKenna. Have McKenna be on the RW boards like Kuch. Get Matthews below the goal line. And shift around for 1 timers like Tampa power play.
7.) 01 Oct 2026 19:52:35
@Hrenklin I like that idea as well. That second PP has looked way better than 1PP imo.
24 Jul 2026 21:30:42
Cry baby Marner, Vegas reporters don't care about him or the other players so he has to bash the Leafs Fans and media to get the attention he craves.
He is a narcistic complainer who wants and needs attention like a little baby
This is why he makes comments and story's up.
Enjoy your silence in Vegas and stop complaining to Leaf Fans as we have already forgotten you!!
1.) 24 Jul 2026 23:51:34
Yes it’s kind of sad to still hear about whatever is being spewed
Enough about him
We have all moved on?
Wierd he has not.
2.) 25 Jul 2026 11:30:57
Slow news day.
01 Jun 2026 03:12:13
Just spit balling,
I think Toronto wants to talk to and possibly hire the Memorial Cup Winners Coach from the Kitchener Rangers.
I really think Toronto needs to seriously look at changing things up.
Sundin mentioned "Culture needs to change"
Well if you think that Matthews, Nylander and Rielly are going to change the way they play and think you are sadly mistaken my boys!
I think Sundin and Chayka need to convince them to waive their no-trade clauses and move the hell on.
Younger faster players will bring more success than these players are going to do together here in Toronto.
I think Matthews and Rielly
To
San Jose for
2nd OV pick, Quintin Musty, William Ekland, Halltanen and Egor Anyfanenov
And
Nylander and Robertson
To
Anaheim for
Semmecke, Zellweger, McTavish, Ethan Procynzan
This the way to retool not adding around players that don't work together, 10 years of this s*** from Shanny and Dubas Enough is enough!!!
What say you??
1.) 01 Jun 2026 13:33:15
Matthews going nowhere. The other 2 can be shown the door, expendable.
2.) 01 Jun 2026 15:49:44
Not sure you know who the Cup finalists are this year, but they don’t exactly scream youth, so not where younger = a Cup, and correct me if I’m wrong, isn’t the leading scorer in the playoffs of similar age group.

Trying to unravel leafsgm comment.
Ah, never mind.
Not interested in that jibberish.

How dare matthews and nylander tell management on their exit interviews that they want to puck moving defenceman and more bite up front with dogs that will get them the puck!
screw the two of them! these two righteous people can go and let's get some players with heart, grit, passion and the will to win.
because these two prima donnas are only here for the money and fame! get out of town you two.
27 Apr 2026 22:48:31
Sure hope that Pelley does not hire Chayka as any part of the Maple Leafs organization.
Scott White as GM, Matta Sundin as President of Hockey Operations and Gary Roberts as Head Trainer
If not Please Rogers, Fire Pelley!!!!!
1.) 28 Apr 2026 00:36:37
What qualifies Sundin to be president of hockey ops exactly?
I don't get the Chatka hate. The Yotes were such a dumpster fire it was impossible for the guy to do better anyway.
2.) 28 Apr 2026 14:01:01
Just because of the way John Chayka bailed on the Organization breaching his contract and also the illegal private combine that got him suspended from the NHL. Not a good look for a hire in my eyes. To be honest, if they are looking for a Amalytics Genius, they should hire his sister Meghan Chayka.
She is the one that is a lot smarter in regards to that and pretty much fed him all his info. Read up on her. She is one smart and very good looking as well lady.
3.) 28 Apr 2026 21:41:13
@suffering
I had no issue with him leaving that dumpster fire at all. That was beyond horrible for all involved.
Good info on the sister. Just looked her up.
06 Mar 2026 01:04:44
I think MLSE should tell Pelly to hire a President of hockey operations.
Pelly doesn't want to do that position or make those decisions.
Toronto could hire Doug Gilmour or Mark Messier for that position. (Hockey Guys)
Then fire Treliving and all of the coaching staff.
Ryan Jankowski from Seattle would be a great young educated GM or Prinium who is the current Assistant GM.
I think Matthews will ask to be traded this summer and will be traded to Los Angeles or Utah.
1.) 06 Mar 2026 11:46:30
I do agree the entire coaching staff should go. I can honestly see Treliving being promoted to president and Pridham becoming the GM.
26 Feb 2026 03:19:03
If Pelly thinks that this team is good he needs to go back where he came from.
This group of players are not a winning team.
I liked Berube, but he needs to go and so do all the assistant coaches.
Treliving you suck as a GM with no changes to a struggling team all year, keep players around and not trading them because you think they are worth more than what other GM's do.
You are known for not trading during a season but he'll this team is begging for some changes.
Nine years is long enough, rip this tea of misfits to the studs and start over.
Not fair to life long fans to put up with this mismanaged team and ownership group.
I wish fans would stop going to games an really stop supporting these Rih owners until they can hire the right people to run a professional team.
Just my thoughts.
28 Jan 2026 03:55:15
Hell, Buffalo fired their GM why don't we.
He is a useless piece of rubbish and has no idea what he is going.
He is supposed to make the team better not f. king worst.
Treliving your fired and take that coaching staff with you
Pelly do your job and hire a start hockey person for GM.
LET THE NEW GM GET RID OF THESE USELESS BUMS LIKE Rielly, MATTHEWS, NYLANDER, DOMI AND PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE!
START OVER!
01 Nov 2026 15:03:01
Right now Toronto is not much better than Calgary, so why in the hell are you thinking that Calgary wants to make all of those trades?
Ridiculous.
31 Oct 2026 19:25:35
Kuch is going to UFA status and he will sign with Washington.
Ovechkin is retiring and Washington will give the new Russian 21 million a year four years.
12 Oct 2026 18:35:01
Toronto will look to trade Rielly to
Seattle for Vince Dunn
Or
Vancouver for Elias Pettersson
Vancouver would be the better trade for Toronto but I think that Toronto may work both deals to give Rielly a choice where he wants to go.
12 Oct 2026 18:32:13
Too much from Toronto.
Toronto trades Villeneuve and 2 in 2028
To
Calgary for Whitecloud
06 Oct 2026 00:39:27
RLF,
Musty would be a great addition, as I have wanted Toronto to pursue him when all the Rielly talks started.
Would be a great add for when Nylander leaves.
10 Jul 2025 04:00:02
I agree I think Cowan could put up the same numbers as Marner in a year from now.
He has the talent and can hit, Marner was a chicken.
10 Jul 2025 03:55:57
Stop the whining, that little prick Marner is gone and he will not survive in Vegas.
I projection is they dump him in 3yrs because they will see how he disappears come playoffs.
He all about the money! Everything else is just smoke and mirrors.
20 Jun 2025 21:18:45
Bitchy Mitchy is a crying suck hole who rode Matthews coat tails for years and will not reach 100 points with any other team!
HE IS JUST ABOUT THE MONEY NO WILL OR HEART IN THAT LITTLE SPOILED PRICK.
12 May 2025 20:19:47
We are all looking for a better game 5 & 6 or this series is over.
Need to change the lines up
Knies Matthews McMann
Patcherity Tavares Marner
Robertson Holmberg Nylander
Lorentz Laughton Reaves
Domi and Jarnkroc scratch them they both suck!
01 Jun 2023 00:07:11
Good then call Shanny and get rid of Fat Boy Keefe, please.
