    Wes Clark seemed very fishy in his last Leafs interview. You can never trust a Dubas boy. Like Spezza, Wes is never welcomed back.

    JD Bumpkin while Clark is an employee of the Leafs: “Clark is a terrible gauge of talent, makes no picks, makes huge reach every year, blah blah blah”. JD Bumpkin after Clark joins Penguins: “Clark with the lethal insta post, such a dig at the end, that’s awesome”. So typical of a Leafs hater!

    In my opinion, Wes Clarke is a very honest guy. He worked at 100 percent for his entire contract for two reasons. A) It’s who he is and secondly, if he didn’t, who would ever trust him if he ever leaves Pittsburgh. It speaks to his integrity. And the Leafs had already hired his replacement a year ago.

    Talk about getting starved for picks by Dubas. At least he gets to eat as a VP in Pitt. Are we even sure he was responsible for the picks or if the guy responsible had his ear. They haven't nailed any picks. We are not sure any of these guys including Knies (15 goal scorer) are legit top 6 forwards.

    Wes leaving means nothing. Shanhan has this year only to fix the mess he made with his then conjoined twin Kyle. Ballard had the goose that laid the golden egg and all he could focus on was how he could roast the goose. Nothing is as bad as the Ballard days. Brendan and Brad will work it out sometime before next springs trade deadline. Or my name isn't Pieth Kelly.

    Why is it that all the Toronto media and fans can’t see that Brendan Shanahan is the problem with the Maple Leafs. He’s the one who pulls the strings. You can poo poo Dubas all you want but he didn’t have final say! I guess since the team hasn’t won since 1967, you’re always looking for scapegoat!
