you'd better believe that Adam Foote is the guy to take you to the next level.

Otherwise, you can't hold Manny Boulter back.

And by all accounts, he's ready to be an NHL head coach.

So it wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for me for them to cut him loose.

But if they did, he'd have to be a man of interest.

And look, I mean, I kind of threw it out there with Ryan Rashog and Gino Retta during our hit earlier today.

Like, I don't think that Chris Knobloch would be automatically on Toronto's list.

But developmentally, like, here's a guy, too, that I didn't realize.

I talked to a guy today who knows him very, very well.

How much he leans on analytic support in Edmonton as a coach.

And, you know, line combinations, the matchup game that you're building going into your next game, playoffs, all of that stuff.

Does that move the needle for John Chayka to at least have a discussion with him?

You know, maybe it does come down to money here, Brian, too, right?

You know, you're on the hook for Craig Berube for four and a half for the next two years.

You know, if you can get somebody for two and a half, three shmill.

on a three-year deal.

I don't know.

I think everything's on the table, though.

You have to have a patient ownership and board.

To do that.
