NHLPA is looking into Dubas and his agent.
His agent is not a NHLPA certified agent but the firm he is with also represents Matthews.

Rules prohibit agents from the same firm representing players and their team's management.

What is unclear is of the rules only apply to NHLPA Certified agents meaning dumbass, despite having once been a certified agent himself and therefore should know better, could be of the hook on a technicality skirting the rules.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Hopefully Dumbass and the pigman end up spending a few years in the slammer...

Can we sacrifice them to the hockey gods? Read their entrails for insight on the Canucks next year.

He is a true Canuck.
Gillis, the gift that keeps on giving.
Gilly and Gillman, together again? :D

Hopefully some of the local media will migrate to Pigtown so they can nob-polish their hero again like old times.

We updated the Toronto Maple leaves GM search earlier tonight Insider Trading. More specifically, all signs now point to the search wrapping up in the very near future with Brad Treliving being named as the new GM.

I can see a power struggle there. One of the criticisms of Treliving is he worked in a vacuum. He is used to calling the shots so I wonder what type of autonomy he got.

Because he's good at good but not great treading water aging teams and first round playoff exits?

Out with the old, in with the older.

Good, he's no better than Dumbass.

First decision will be Sheldon Keefe.

Please keep him, please keep him, please keep him...

Worst coach in the NHL.

I'm positive that there will be teams like CHI who will want one of our contracts like Brock, Garland, Myers and maybe even (god-willing) OEL.

Teams like the Leaves and Pens will continue needing to go for it and would also consider a giant RHD with an expiry contract or maybe a tiny, but feisty winger.

Baldy, you can do it. Just dump some of these contracts like it's Fukushima waste water. You don't even need to get anything of value in return.
