Leafs Player Reveals Contract Negotiations with Kyle Dubas Prior to His Departure

This situation has both Leafs Nation and Hockey Insiders speculating about the organization's next steps in appointing a new General Manager. Leafs players are also engaged in this conversation.

Luke Schenn, the newly re-acquired Leafs defender, has recently shared some insider information. He revealed that he had been in talks about a potential contract extension with Dubas before the news of his non-renewal came out. The 33-year-old Schenn disclosed this information last week, just after Dubas was relieved of his duties.

Schenn has proven to be a valuable addition to the Leafs' defensive lineup since joining the team at this season's trade deadline. His dedication and consistent performance helped him move up from a bottom-pairing role to being partnered with Morgan Reilly during the playoffs.

It's clear that Schenn is eager to sign an extension. However, in the current absence of a General Manager for the Leafs, it remains uncertain whether extension talks for Schenn will resume or if he will be back at all.
