Toronto Maple Leafs GM John Chayka to satisfy with Auston Matthews in Arizona, and with Craig Berube this weekend<\/strong><\/h2>\n

OverDrive<\/a><\/strong>: Pierre LeBrun said on TSN 1050 radio that Toronto Maple Leafs GM John Chayka will likely be meeting with Auston Matthews<\/a> in the approaching day in Arizona.<\/p>\n

OverDrive<\/strong><\/a>: LeBrun said on TSN radio that Chayka will likely be meeting with head coach Craig Berube<\/a> this weekend.<\/p>\n

@nylanderthews<\/strong><\/a>: James Mirtle (The Athletic) on the Leafs Report earlier this week: \u201cI believe that if Chayka and Sundin sit down and have really honest, thorough conversations with the players, they are going to come to the conclusion they need to alter the coach\u201d<\/p>\n

Mirtle guesses that Auston Matthews doesn\u2019t need to play for head coach Craig Berube.<\/p>\n

NHL Rumors: Ottawa Senators, and the Philadelphia Flyers<\/a><\/p>\n

Will the San Jose Sharks keep the second overall pick?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sekeres and Price<\/strong><\/a>: Frankie Corrado, talking concerning the San Jose Sharks and what could they appear at in the event that they\u2019d consider moving the second overall pick within the 2026 NHL draft.<\/p>\n

Corrado: \u201cI don\u2019t think San Jose makes that pick. I believe that pick is an element of San Jose\u2019s plan to improve sooner. And that might mean, \u201cLet\u2019s, let\u2019s hear your best offer.\u2019<\/p>\n

Do you might have someone who\u2019s a foundational piece in your organization who doesn\u2019t fit, and possibly it\u2019s not going anywhere anytime soon. That we will have for our organization, and we gives you that second overall pick. That\u2019s what I believe happens with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blake Price: \u201cWhat they need is a right-shot defenseman who\u2019s been there, done that. Shown the flexibility.\u201d<\/p>\n

Matt Sekeres: \u201cAll situations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Price: \u201cHas years still on the runway. Under contract at a predictable number that doesn\u2019t handicap you for the longer term.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sekers: \u201cAn a tricky, gritty, defensive-minded guy \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Price: \u201cI can consider a man.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sekeres: \u201c\u2026 who\u2019s not inept with the puck.\u201d<\/p>\n

Price: \u201cLike a Filip Hronek<\/a>, perhaps.\u201d<\/p>\n

Corrado: \u201cI believe they’d be considering larger than that \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

NHL Rumors: Toronto Maple Leafs, and the Chicago Blackhawks<\/a><\/p>\n

Price: \u201cOhhhhhhhhh.\u201d<\/p>\n

Corrado: \u201c\u2026 if I were them. I can be considering larger than that. I can be considering.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sekeres: \u201cYou could have no vision.\u201d<\/p>\n

Corrado: \u201cI can be considering if I were them, what does Austin Matthews need to do?\u201d<\/p>\n
