There is currently more uncertainty about Leafs' GM now more than ever. An insider just revealed the Leafs' intentions with Dubas for this offseason!

Dubas' Future Revealed

Kyle Dubas has certainly tried to keep his place as Leafs' GM this past season. With massive trade deadline acquisitions and retooling on the fly, Dubas made some fantastic moves but the result of these moves may wind up costing Dubas his job.

NHL insider, Chris Johnston, has provided his take on the Leafs GM:

"I know a lot of people around the situation, and there's more and more thought that he might not be the GM of the Leafs moving into next season." - Chris Johnston

This is quite concerning considering that Dubas is the best Leafs GM in a long time and firing him may wind up blowing up in the Leafs' face resulting in more years of losing.

How Does This Affect The Future

Dubas has formulated great relationships with the Leafs' best core players. It can be epitomized by this thought from Morgan Rielly:

With Dubas getting fired, it could result in the players on the ice becoming unhappy and being moved. It is known that Dubas has a good relationship with Auston Matthews and if Dubas were to be fired, it would likely mean Auston Matthews walks in free agency in the 2024 offseason.
