Elliotte Friedman Links Dubas to Pittsburgh and Ottawa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
According to Elliotte Friedman on Hockey Night in Canada<\/em>, the Pittsburgh Penguins have ramped up their search for a new general manager. It is mentioned that the Penguins might reach a decision as early as next week and might reach out to Dubas to gauge his interest in the job with the team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Who knows whether Dubas would be interested? However, Friedman expects the Penguins to request permission to talk with him. In fact, just as I was typing this sentence a message showed up on my phone that the Penguins had, indeed, reached out; and, they had, indeed, been given said permission.<\/p>\n\n\n The rumours surrounding Dubas and the potential interest from other teams make sense. Dubas has been engaged front-and-center in the action of team-building and organizational development. One problem the Maple Leafs will have is that so many members of Toronto’s organization have been hired and developed by Dubas. He’s developed a team and a culture that will permeate the organization for years after he’s gone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There’s no doubt that Dubas will remain an intriguing leadership candidate for teams NHL teams seeking a new general manager. However, he might want a job higher up an organization’s food chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/oldprof.nhltradetalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Dubas-Maple-Leafs-1024x539.jpg\")
