Ryan Whitney Takes a Shot at Kyle Dubas in Latest Rant
In the aftermath of the Toronto Maple Leafs' hunt for a new general manager, criticism and remarks aimed at the former GM, Kyle Dubas, haven't ceased, stemming from fans and past players alike.
Ryan Whitney's Views on the Spittin' Chicklets Podcast
Must read on Daily Hockey Dose
Ex-NHL player Ryan Whitney didn't shy away from sharing his opinions on Dubas and his exit from the Leafs on a recent episode of the Spittin' Chicklets podcast.
Contradictions Surrounding Kyle Dubas's Departure
Despite Dubas declaring during his final press conference as a member of the Maple Leafs that he would only take a sabbatical or continue working for them, subsequent developments suggest a different narrative.
Only a few days following the announcement that his contract would not be extended and he that he subsequently would not be continuing in the NHL, there were speculations about him being a candidate for a position with the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The Truth Behind Dubas's Actions
While Dubas' words originally seemed sincere enough, Whitney's statement still rings true, it seems Dubas' actions have not been matching his words and that's never a good sign.
Given these recent developments regarding Dubas and the Penguins, the idea that Dubas may have been lying about his departure from the NHL becomes a lot more plausible, and given what we know about Whitney as a person and a player, he doesn't shy away from giving people the cold hard truth, and his words definitely have some weight to them.
