So we're going to get this guy who, like, again, I'm going to remind everyone, this is the Toronto Maple Leafs job.
You have the pick of the litter.
You have Brandon Pridham, who's been here forever.
You have Ryan Hardy, who you've trusted to be one of your associate or other co-GMs or whatever.
You've interviewed, I think, every assistant general manager in the league.
You've interviewed Mike Gillis.
You've had talks with Matt Sundin.
And the guy you're landing on is John Chayka?
I don't think...
we realize what we're talking about.
Well, what is, what is it about?
The resume in Arizona followed by getting fired with cause followed by suspended with cause suspended with cause and having to get reinstated.
And he's going to get like the job.
This guy is a good, I think he's a mediocre candidate to get back into the league in a supporting role.
So there's guys like Pete Shirelli and John Ferguson Jr.
who, to different degrees, weren't good as general managers, but have worked for a long time as assistant general managers afterwards, and depending on who you asked, have done a decent job.
I'm not so sure about Shirelli.
John Ferguson Jr.
