Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving is on the hot seat right now, and some Maple Leafs fans have decided who should replace him.
Brad Treliving's job with the Toronto Maple Leafs is on the line right now. While he probably won't be fired before the New Year, there is no denying that a lot is on the line right now.
The fans are starting to get very frustrated with Treliving, who made some bad moves during the offseason that have left the Leafs in a bad spot.
This team's results have been abysmal, and with the Leafs heading towards the bottom of the Eastern Conference, some difficult conversations are being had.
Maple Leafs fans are done with Brad Treliving
If you were to ask the average Leaf fan, they would tell you that Treliving needs to go immediately. In fact, some have already chosen his replacement.
For instance, there are some fans out there demanding that St. Louis Blues general manager Doug Armstrong takes over in the Maple Leafs front office.
Treliving is a complete sitting duck. If there's already whispers about him now, in December, I can't see him being here this summer. I'd put heavy money on Doug Armstrong being the Leafs Pres & GM by the draft.
For those who may not know, Armstrong is in his last year as GM of the Blues. Alex Steen will take over, and from there, he will take on a new role with the Blues.
However, some fans think Armstrong could be brought over to the Leafs, where he would be the President and General Manager.
There are other fans out there who are thinking that Jim Nill is the best replacement, although it feels likely that the Dallas Stars will keep him.
Whatever the case may be, fans are ready for change, and they are telling the franchise exactly what they want.
