Tough weekend in Boston. In action tonight, Washington. Max Scherzer on the mound, so we'll get Keegan's take on that. More still to come. Dave Naylor later in the hour. Like we were saying, it's kind of golf tournament season, and Zach Hyman had his tourney. I saw Max Domi taking pictures out there, but I haven't heard anything on the status of Max. Have you heard anything, Jonas?
Jonas Siegel 0:48
I mean, I haven't really looked.
Bryan Hayes 0:50
It looks like he's okay, which is a good sign.
Jonas Siegel 0:52
They've been very guarded about the whole situation as to what his status is. I think John Chyka said a couple weeks, I guess it was a few weeks ago now, that they would have an update maybe at training camp, that there would be a better indication as to whether he's going to play next year or when he's going to play. But that whole situation is just weird. Yeah.
Bryan Hayes 1:13
I mean, the reporting on it, it was a surgery, right? And maybe something didn't go right. I don't want to misspeak. But when a statement has to be made on his behalf, that's not a great sign. But, you know, hopefully he's okay. I don't know if he's playing golf or not, or he's just out there kind of representing himself.
Jonas Siegel 1:31
I'd be surprised, yeah.
Bryan Hayes 1:33
It would be kind of weird if you're not sure you're going to play, but you're teeing it off. Yeah, who knows? Yeah, maybe he's just out there kind of doing his thing. But that would be an interesting one. You know, like for the Leafs in their offseason, I think the heavy lifting's done. I don't know if you're still bracing for any more. As of now, Zach Wierenski not going anywhere. He's going to remain there. But Dylan Larkin's stuff is still kind of hanging around in Detroit, right? What is he going to do now that Eisenman's out? Is there a way for them to kind of patch things up? Is he going to expand the amount of teams he's willing to go to? I would think at some point that has to happen. Did they hire a general manager yet?
Bryan Hayes 2:14
No, no one has been announced yet. So who's in charge? That's a great question. The Illich family. They still own the team. It's a tough one for whoever the next GM is going to be. You're walking into a scenario where the captain of the team has asked publicly for a trade. How do you possibly handle that?
Jonas Siegel 2:38
Well, and how do you get something of value? How do you make it worthwhile? I think they need another center. And they're in this weird in-between. And this is where the conversations we were having last year about the Leafs, it's like, should they rebuild? Should they retool? You can get stuck in a rebuild forever. Think of how long it's been since Detroit made the playoffs. I think it's like the Babcock years, right? Yeah, it's been 10 years. Yeah, it's like, yeah, you get high picks.
Bryan Hayes 3:07
They're the new Leafs. That was the Maple Leafs forever. Yes. Just like a decade of not making the playoffs, not making the playoffs, getting people's hopes up. No, they choked again. They didn't make the playoffs. Right. And it's kind of been the no... The no-plan plan. Now, they never got lucky in the lottery. That hurts. There were years where they were the worst team in the league, and they dropped to four.
Jonas Siegel 3:32
And they missed on some of those picks, too.
Bryan Hayes 3:35
And they definitely missed on some of those picks.
Jonas Siegel 3:36
Wasn't Zedina the second overall pick?
Bryan Hayes 3:39
He wasn't that high, but that was a miss.
Jonas Siegel 3:42
Was it Svechnikov?
Bryan Hayes 3:42
No, he went to Carolina.
Jonas Siegel 3:43
There was someone...
Bryan Hayes 3:44
I know Zedina was one of their picks, and that was a high pick, a top-five pick, and I want to say Quinn Hughes went after him. That sounds right. I'm pretty sure it might have been Raymond, but I think it was Zedina that they took, and Quinn Hughes was right down the street at Michigan, and they didn't take him, and obviously that was a big miss.
