Kyle Dubas’ offseason has been nothing but stellar!

“Wait, the team needs defense you say?“ He went out and got defense, not to mention, without overpaying for it.

“The Leafs need toughness and veteran leadership presence?“ He got Wayne Simmonds and Joe freaking Thornton.

“What about depth scoring?” You may scream “Du-fas destroyed that by trading away the scoring third liners!” Anyone who’s saying that is just really desperate for an excuse to hate Kyle Dubas at this point (hi Steve Simmons).

This is the most complete Leafs roster since 2003-2004, there’s no denying that, and Kyle Dubas did all of that without trading away a single piece of his core in a world where the salary cap is completely stagnant, which is nothing short of a miracle.
