Toronto GM calls out Blackhawks GM for leaking Fleury discussionsVincent Pariseon March 21, 2022 at 8:22 pm

The Leafs are a great team with an elite core of players. Unfortunately, they are not very good on the net. They could have really used Fleury to help with that but it won’t happen for them this season.

When talking about the trade deadline after it passed, Maple Leafs’ GM Kyle Dubas didn’t seem happy with Chicago Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson. Someone asked him about their discussions on Fleury going public and he did not appreciate it.

Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas called out Chicago Blackhawks GM Kyle Davidson.

Dubas was clearly upset that those conversations went public. He basically told them that the answer to that can only be given by Kyle Davidson which implies that he is the one who leaked the information about their discussions. Later, Davidson was then asked about it and he had a response as well.

Davidson clearly took a much higher road than Dubas on this one and told him that he will address it with him in private. That is the right answer as these two try to move forward without any animosity. It would be nice for Toronto and Chicago to be able to work well in the future.

Dubas probably has a lot of reasons that he didn’t want that info leaked. The first is that he probably didn’t want his goalies to know about it in case the trade didn’t go through which it didn’t. Now, the guys there know that the GM doesn’t fully trust them.

It is also just a tough situation for Davidson because he might have not been the one to leak the rumors. We also live in the age of social media so this stuff happens from time to time. Info travels quickly in the year 2022. Hopefully, these two young GMs can figure it out and find peace.
