As Dubas put it shortly after the firing, he noted that he and Babcock: <em>&#8220;I tried to do as best I could &#8230; and I&#8217;m disappointed in myself and only myself that it didn&#8217;t work out, that we couldn&#8217;t become simpatico on every single topic.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When\u00a0we wrote about Babcock\u2019s firing we asked the question back then \u201c<em>What happens now if Dubas and Shanahan can\u2019t become simpatico.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disagreeing with a Coach Differs from Disagreeing with the Team President<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We wrote that it was one thing for the general manager of a team to disagree with the coach, who was below the GM in the pecking order.\u00a0But, it was something completely different for the\u00a0general manager and his boss, the president, to disagree.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cAt that point, if I&#39;m being honest, I had gotten to a different place about how I felt about the future of the Toronto Maple Leafs and what was best.\u201d<br><br>How the negotiation between Kyle Dubas and Brendan Shanahan fell apart, according to the president: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7z7q0EZlGN\">https:\/\/t.co\/7z7q0EZlGN<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jdd2cz3AkK\">pic.twitter.com\/jdd2cz3AkK<\/a><\/p>&mdash; luke fox (@lukefoxjukebox) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lukefoxjukebox\/status\/1659908220725411841?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 20, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the coach and the GM don\u2019t get along, the GM is going to win that fight pretty much every time.\u00a0The same cannot be said when the GM doesn\u2019t get along with the man who hired him and is his boss.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Schism Was Obviously Beyond Repair<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was this week that we saw that speculation play out.\u00a0Shanahan obviously got to the point where he felt that the schism that was developing between him and Dubas had grown to the point where it was beyond repair.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the act of it played out quickly, over a few days, it is obvious now the lead-up to it took place over a much longer period of time.
